Comments

A request can be specified using either the name or the index number of a member of the data type.

Available data sets depend on which data type is used.

You can use an asterisk or a question mark to represent a character.

An asterisk, *, can represent one or more characters.
A question mark, ?, can represent only one character.

For MADYMO, this statement specifies which component to read.
