Peek function

slimypi — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 03:20:30 GMT

Hello,

Now, the Row_num=0 usage I do understand, but I can't figure it out for the example with : Peek(EmployeeCode,2).

For me, this command should return Indeed the third value of the table which is 103.

Though the doc says : Peek(EmployeeCode,2) returns the third value in the table: 102.

So i'm confused, in which table (internal maybe ? ) the third value is 102 ?

Thank you for your help

Hi,

I think it is a documentation mistake because ,2 returns the third line, you are right, this is 103.

There is no internal table at all.

Regards

That was what I thought I just tried to check wit you guys.

I just spent 1 hour trying to figure out what have I misunderstood.

Frankly, I've stumbled upon KIND OF unusual amount of mistakes in the official documentation.

I hope these inaccuracies are corrected, I've also checked other language for the same page (French) and the same mistake is ther.

Anyway thank you for yout response.

If someone had an explanation other than a mistake i will be tracking this subject.

RegardS.

This is indeed a typo in the documentation. We will correct this in the next update of the help.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and apologies for the inconvenience.
