Calling us.link

Use the following parameters to call the us.link application:

Note Fill and fill.recurse use different parameter names for the same fields.

Parameter Name	Description	Default
record	Source Record (required)	None
name	Field name to find from/link to	Current field
string1	Format Name	Current format
second.record	Link Record (optional)	None
prompt	Action (“find” or “fill”)	“find”
boolean1	Background flag	False
all.null	Exit when closing the current thread	None
index	Cursor line	None
cond.input	Skip Exact Find Note This parameter is used only for reference fields (that is, fields that have a referenced table defined in the data policy). By default, the Find function of a reference field performs an exact match search instead of using the query defined in the link record. If you want to use the query defined in the link record for a reference field, pass this parameter as true when calling the us.link application.	False

Note The only required parameter for us.link is the source record.
