This function is useful in looping scripts or recursive custom calculations.
Values are text items separated by carriage returns. You can place several values together to create a carriage return-delimited list of values. A value can be empty, a single character, a word, a sentence, or a paragraph. When you press Enter or Return, you start creating a new value. The last value will be recognized with or without a carriage return.
When the listOfValues parameter is a literal string, you must insert a literal carriage return character (¶) between each item in the string. To insert a literal carriage return character, click the ¶ button in the Specify Calculation dialog box.
GetValue ( "London¶Paris¶Hong Kong" ; 2 ) returns
