IMsCompositeFormulaTerm.FormatExpressionText

Syntax

FormatExpressionText(Format: MsTermTextFormat): String;

Parameters

Format. Name Format.

Description

The FormatExpressionText property returns the name of a composite term in the specified format.

Comments

The following formats are available for composite terms:

MsTermTextFormat.Inversions. Name with term initial transformation and its period specification.
MsTermTextFormat.Screened. Name of the term with the escaped characters. The \ symbol is used for character escaping. If the string contains the \ symbol, the next symbol is recognized as a string.

To apply several formatting parameters, specify the necessary enumeration values MsTermTextFormat via Or.

Example

Executing the example requires that the repository contains the INFO composite term sent as a function input parameter.

Add a link to the Ms system assembly.

Sub UserProcInfo(Info: IMsCompositeFormulaTerm);
Begin
    Debug.Write("Term name, subject to initial transformation: ");
    Debug.WriteLine(Info.FormatExpressionText(MsTermTextFormat.Inversions));
    Debug.Write("Term name with escaped characters: ");
    Debug.WriteLine(Info.FormatExpressionText(MsTermTextFormat.Screened));
End Sub UserProcInfo;

After executing the example the console window displays the term name in different formats. For example:

Term name, subject to initial transformation: log(Annual data {2012}[t] * Seasonal variations {2012}[t])

Term name with escaping characters: Annual data \{2012\}[t] * Seasonal fluctuations \{2012\}[t]
