string

A character string that supplies dynamics procedures with Dynamics-related data.

You can access this string within a 4GL procedure by reading the ICFPARAMETER attribute of the SESSION system handle.

Note: This parameter is reserved for use by Dynamics and procedures that have been integrated with Dynamics. Using this parameter for any purpose other than operating within the Dynamics framework will interfere with your ability to integrate your application with that framework at a later time.

For more information on the ICFPARAMETER attribute or the SESSION system handle, see OpenEdge Development: Progress 4GL Reference .
