Programming Manual, 12/2017, 6FC5397-1DP40-6BA1

The function copies a dialog description embedded in a part program

into the specified local variable.

The call parameters to be specified are the program name, the dialog

name, and a variable for storing the main menu name. If the name of

the dialog description was found in the part program, the return varia‐

ble contains this description. If the content of the variable is stored in

a file, the script can be executed with an indirect call.

The system provides a script that extracts the dialog description from

the active part program and activates the dialog. This script can be

called in an MMC command to activate the screen associated with the

part program.
