Parameter Read/Write Area

You use the Parameter Read/Write area to create a new parameter or to select an existing parameter using the Parameter list. You can also enter or select an existing array parameter element or an aggregate parameter member.

The background of the Parameter list changes to indicate the status of the parameter:

White The list is empty or contains the name of an existing, unused parameter.
Yellow The list contains the name of a new parameter that does not exist.
Green The list contains an existing parameter that is being read from the file.
Pink The list contains an existing parameter that is being written to the file.

You can use the and buttons to create a Read and Write action, respectively. The button for the default action for the file is highlighted with a black border. Read is the default action for files that are being read (output parse), and Write is the default action for files being written (input parse). You can remove the current Read or Write instruction by clicking the button.
