Icetips Utilities Documentation 7/6/2014     String Class:  GetFieldPrefix

Previous  Top  Next

This method uses the SplitFieldName method to split the prefix from the field name.  It returns the prefix without the trailing colon.  This can be very useful when parsing Clarion code or TXA/TXD code to extract field information.

Example:

ITS  ITStringClass

Fn   String(20)

Code

Fn = 'MYF:SysID'

Message('Prefix of ' & Fn & ' = ' & ITS.GetFieldPrefix(Fn))
