Syntax

TEXTFIELD ( string )


Implemented in iMath since version 2.2.0 or earlier.

Explanation

Access the value of a text field. The string must contain the text field type, e.g. DDE.<dde-name> for a DDE text field or User.<varname> for a user-defined text field. DDE text fields can reference single cells or cell ranges. The text field value is always a string. iMath tries to guess the value type and will create either numbers or strings. If the argument is a cell range, iMath will create a vector filled with the referenced cell values. The vector will be a row or column vector, depending on the cell range. For German users: ooowiki has a good explanation of how to create DDE links.
