how to take caption of the option

Amaraa

Hello,

Sorry for the such asking.
But how can I take caption of the option.


FORMAT("Document Type") = caption (....)
FORMAT("Document Type"::Payment) = value (1)

I need to take something fixed like in 2nd case. But it doesn't give me a work instead it is giving me a number.

Any help appreciated,
Amaraa

FORMAT("Document Type") = caption (....)
FORMAT("Document Type"::Payment) = value (1)

this code you wrote clearly does not compile...what do you really want to do?
obtain the caption of a certain option?

Mytextvariable := format("Document type"::payment)
Mytextvariable := format("Document type"::"1")

Create a new variable (I presume you are using T36:"Sales Header") and assign the option to it, and then print it:

recSalesHeader."Document Type" := rec."Document Type"::"Order";
txtText := FORMAT(recSalesHeader."Document Type");
MESSAGE('%1',txtText);
