Number is a member of the NamedArraylist class.

This ReadOnly property returns the item number (ordinal) of the item that has the specified name in the NamedArraylist.

Syntax

%num = %namrayl:Number(name)

Syntax terms

%num A numeric variable to contain the number of the named %namrayl item.
%namrayl A NamedArraylist object.
name A string that serves as a subscript to identify a %namrayl item. If the indicated name is not in %namrayl, 0 is returned, regardless of the setting of UseDefault.

Usage Notes

  • If the Number property is called and there is no item on the NamedArraylist that has the indicated subscript name, a 0 is returned, regardless of the setting of UseDefault.
