Example 2

-- function ToString () converts a boolean value (true/false)
-- to a string (True, False). If the value passed is not
-- of type boolean, the passed value is returned unchanged.
function ToString(Value)
    -- Ensure value is type boolean
    if type (Value) ~= "boolean" then
        -- Value is not type boolean, return unchanged
        return Value;
    elseif Value then
        -- Value is true, return string True
        return "True";
    else
        -- Value is false, return string False
        return "False";
    end
end

-- Retrieve the properties from combo box control 02
tProperties = DlgComboBox.GetProperties(CTRL_COMBOBOX_02);

-- Show the Debug Window.
Debug.ShowWindow(true);

-- For each property in the table, do this
for Property, Value in pairs(tProperties) do
    -- Output property to debug window
    Debug.Print(Property .. ": " .. ToString(Value) .. "\r\n\r\n");
end

Gets the properties of the '02' combo box control and outputs them to the debug window. The function ToString is used to convert any boolean values to strings. If the function is passed a value that is not boolean, the value is returned unchanged.
