Syntax

@Return( value )

Parameters

value

The value you want returned. You can specify another @function such as @Error, or a text string such as "Formula stopped," or a Boolean value (True or False). If you don't want anything returned, use the null string ("").

result

Returns value.

@Return is most useful in field formulas, agents that run formulas, and toolbar buttons. Generally, you use it with @If to determine whether to perform @Return or to perform one or more other statements.

@Return should not be used in column formulas.
