Select the Functions tab. In the Function tab, the list of
standard functions shows. In addition, the Actions pane is displayed.
To display the Lookup Table dialog
box, choose from one of the following options:
Right-click the Lookup Tables node
in the Functions tab and from the menu select Add
New Lookup Table... .
In the Actions pane, select Add New Lookup Table.
The Lookup Table dialog box opens.
In the Table Name field of the Lookup
Table dialog box, enter a name for your lookup table.
Note: This name must be unique for all tables in the current
project. The name of the table is not case sensitive - the case of
a character is not considered. For example, the table name: Aaa is
equivalent to the table name: AAA.
Optional: In the Description field
enter descriptive information about the table.
Define the Key Value pairs for the
table.
Repeat the following steps for each Key
Value pair in the table:
Click Add.
In the Key field, enter the value of the
key. During run time, this key will be matched by the specified value.
In the Value field, enter the value that
the key will be translated to during run time. Press the Return key.
Optional: Enter a value in the Default
Value field. Enter a value in this field, if you want
the lookup table to supply a value even when no keys are matched during
run time. Leave this field blank, if the lookup table should not return
a value when no keys are matched during run time.
Optional: Enter a value in the Value
if "nil" field. This property only affects nillable nodes.
Enter a value in this field, if during run time you want the lookup
table to supply a value even when the source node is empty and the
source node is nillable. Leave this field blank, if during run time
the lookup table should not return any value when the source node
is empty and the source node is nillable.
