Return value

This command returns a string.

Example

MISC_INFO 0

When running a template named "Data entry for 4 features", or when running a Planned Session or Stored session based on this template, this formula returns the string "Data entry for 4 features".

MISC_INFO 103

This returns the label for the third traceability field.

Svar 1 = MISC_INFO 3 : Svar 2 = MISC_INFO 4

When running a planned session named "A-50RB, 4 features", this formula will set the value of Svar 1 to "P" and the value of Svar 2 to "A-50RB, 4 features".
