Name
Get —
objCounter
.Get(
strCounterName
)
Synopsis
Retrieves the current value of any counter held in the Counters component. If the counter name you provide is not yet stored by the Counters component, a new counter is added and given a value of zero (0).
Parameters
-
strCounterName A string that represents the name of the counter variable you wish to manipulate. This name can contain any Unicode character.
Example
The following example assumes a Counters object already exists (see
"Instantiating the Counters Component" earlier in this
chapter) and demonstrates the use of the Get method. It assumes a
Counters component (gobjOptionCounter) has
been instantiated elsewhere.
