String
String
Returns the text of the field or sets the field's text. When setting the field's text, if the string specified is shorter than the length of the field, the rest of the field is cleared. If the string is longer than the field, the text is truncated. A subsequent call to this property will not reflect the changed text. To see the changed text, you must call the Refresh method of the Fields object to retrieve a new Field object.
Syntax

Parameters
Index |
Integer, input |

Index of the field object. |

Msgbox FlexFields(1).String
End Sub
