DictField.helpDefined Method

Definition

Returns the value of the help property for the field.

public:
 virtual System::String ^ helpDefined();
public virtual string helpDefined ();
abstract member helpDefined : unit -> string
override this.helpDefined : unit -> string
Public Overridable Function helpDefined () As String

Returns

The value of the help property for the field.

Remarks

Unlike the help method, the helpDefined method does not return the Help text of the extended data type if the field is based on an extended data type and has no Help text defined for it.

The following example shows retrieval of the defined Help text for the field.

DictField df; 
df = new DictField(tablenum(CustTable), fieldnum(CustTable, AccountNum)); 
if (df) 
{ 
    print df.helpDefined(); 
}
