efsExternal again

[paulm]

Hi

I am trying to call a study using efsExternal ... the study returns just a single string.

How in the calling study do I get the value returned by the called study given that it is just a single string?

Thanks

efsInternal() and efsExternal() only retrieve values that are numbers and not strings, boolean etc.
You could use call() or callFunction() however these functions do not create any series.

Thanks ... so if the called study just returns a single number can I get at that i.e. it returns a single no. not a series

If the called study is returning a value (or an array of values) then efsExternal() will be able to retrieve it (or them) and create the series
