SetEditRegion Example

  1. Insert an EditRegion function in cell A3 with the default settings. Assume cell A3 is populated as follows:

    A3 = EditRegion($A$0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,"",0)

    An EditRegion control, along with a corresponding results table is created in the adjacent cells to the right.

  2. Using the telnet client, issue the following command: EV SetEditRegion(A3,100,100,250,250,0,0)

    The EditRegion results table is updated to reflect the SetEditRegion input values.
