<code>UPDATE [[string]]</code>

Update a formula (Math object) that was created earlier in the document. The name of the Math object must be given as it appears in the context menu "Properties" or in the Navigator. The Math object will typically be an [[EXDEF]] statement. Any statements containing a label will cause an error, for example it is not allowed to [[EQDEF]] a variable twice.

3=
Assume that somewhere in the document we have defined
@result@ EQDEF x = a + b
and in the Math object "Objekt1" we write
TEXT =
EXDEF VAL(x)
Later in the document, the values of <code>a</code> and <code>b</code> are known:
@a@ EQDEF a = 3
@b@ EQDEF b = 4

Using <code>UPDATE</code>, we can now update to show the correct value of <code>x</code>
UPDATE "Objekt1"
