Example XojoScript:

Hint: Use properties in order to hold a value at a single location, which then can be reused in various scripts.

For instance in this example we have the property cLetterLocationDateY which holds the vertical position value

of the city and date information on invoices and letters.

// Set position of date to be printed on invoice

Call SetPropertyDouble("cLetterLocationDateY",230.0)

// Display property to user

MsgBox(Str(GetPropertyDouble("cLetterLocationDateY")))
