Configure QuickFunctions

You can create, modify, or delete QuickFunctions.

Create a QuickFunction

   The QuickFunctions dialog box appears.

   

2. In the Function box, enter a name for the QuickFunction.

3. In the Arguments area, for each argument, enter a name on the left and a data type on the right.

   Arguments are local variables that exist only within the QuickFunction in which they are defined. You can have up to 16 arguments per QuickFunction. Argument names can have 31 characters but no spaces. The argument names must begin with an alpha character. Argument names must be unique.

4. Type your script in the window.

5. To cause the QuickFunction to return a result, add to your script: RETURN value

   Value can be a literal value, a local variable, or global tagname or calculated expression. The script terminates at the RETURN command and continues at the calling function.

6. Select OK.
