thanks Rutger, yes it will work. but I'm looking the official optional parameter from progress language and it seems that they do not exist, lol.

thanks Carlo, but I need to get the real value not screen-value of variable vInt through handle h. i think there is a way to access those real value, maybe using pointer or something else ???

thanks RealHeavy, can we compare a HANDLE is a memory address of variables? just like in C++ we can get the real value of a variable using pointer.

Thanks RealHeavyDude, Great news Tom, could you give example of it?

ok thanks Osborne, if not possible then case closed.

could anyone give example on how to define function with optional parameter? for example TRIM function has optional parameter as below syntax TRIM ( expression [ , trim-chars ] ) MESSAGE TRIM(" abc "). MESSAGE TRIM("abca", "a"). above code will result in (without quotes) "abc" "bc" thanks.

DEFINE VARIABLE vInt AS INTEGER FORMAT "9,999". vInt = 1234. DISPLAY vInt WITH FRAME f. vInt = 5678. DEFINE VARIABLE h AS HANDLE. h = vInt:HANDLE. MESSAGE vInt:INPUT-VALUE vInt. MESSAGE h:INPUT-VALUE. Above code will display on message area as below : 1234 5678 1234 My question is how to get...
