Element Details: Switch+Column
 Back


Available in: Logi Info Source code name: SwitchColumnIntroduced in: v10.1.18

The SwitchColumn element replaces the current value of a column based on your switch values. For example, the element could change the values "r" and "g" into "Red" and "Green".

The DataColumn is the name of the input column. The ID is the name of the column that will contain the switched values. If these are the same, the new values will replace the old values.

Set the DataType attribute to control how values are compared.

Add a SwitchIf element for each value pair.

Add a SwitchElse to cover any input values that are not covered by SwitchIf elements.

Expressions should be in VBScript or JavaScript syntax. For .NET versions, the scripting language can be set in the _settings.lgx General element.
