Action Diagram Expressions

Expressions are used in conditions of all kinds and in SET statements. Their purpose is to provide a value consistent with the primitive domain of the attribute view or special attribute to which they are being assigned (in SET statements and the FOR loop) or compared (in conditions). As a result, the construction of an expression is different depending on whether it is to return a Text, Number, Date or Time value.
