Table_GetOSName(table table_name)
• table table_name – The name of the table for which the operating system name is being returned.
A string containing the operating system name and path (in generic format) of the table. If the path is not available, only the operating system name is returned.
This function can also return the operating system name being used for temporary tables. This is especially useful for SQL tables when stored procedures need to work with data in SQL temporary tables.
A script that uses the Table_GetOSName() function must have access to the table buffer for the table whose name is being returned. Procedures and functions have access to all tables in the application. Other scripts have access only to the tables attached to the form the scripts are part of.
