Transferring Unbound Variables and Fields

Transferring variables and fields follows the regular List & Label principle. There are three "API variations" available for the registration.

 

API

Description

LlDefineVariable

Defines a variable of the type LL_TEXT and its content.

LlDefineVariableExt

As described above; additionally can be transferred along with the List & Label data type.

LlDefineVariableExtHandle

As described above, except that the content must now be a handle.

 

One example in which a "text" type variable is registered looks like this:

LL.LlDefineVariableExt("MyVariable", "Content", LL_TEXT)

You can find the constants for the List & Label data types in the cmll29.bas (VB) unit located in your List & Label installation directory.
