MakeDisplayString Method

Returns a string representation of the parameter value.

Syntax

Function MakeDisplayString As String

Remarks

If the value is Null, then the string returned is empty. To check if the value is Null, use the IsNull Property. If the value is a range value, it will appear in the form 1stVal - From val.2ndVal - ToVal, and it will be surrounded by the (,[,], and) brackets, depending on the upper bound and lower bound properties.

Note:    The notation used for upper and lower bound properties is similar to the mathematical notation used to describe ranges. For example, the [symbol means that the range includes the lower bound or minimum value. The (symbol means that the range includes any value up to, but not including, the lower bound value.

If this method fails, it returns an error. Please see the section Error Codes for a list of errors and their descriptions.
