The
ByAddress property is used to determine if a procedure parameter was passed by address.
If the parameter was passed by address, its value can be modified in the procedure code.
Remarks: - This property is identical to ByReference.
- The concepts "Parameter pass by reference" and "Parameter pass by address" are identical.
Index is int = 1
Index2 is int = 3
Index3 is int = 4
// Before the call to the procedure, the variables have their default values
AddOne(Index, Index2, Index3)
// After the call to the procedure, the values of the variables have been changed
// -- Declare the procedure

Syntax
<Result> = <Parameter used>.ByAddress
<Result>: Boolean
- True if the parameter was passed by address,
- False otherwise.
<Parameter used>: Character string
Name of the parameter used. This parameter is defined via the MyParameters keyword, by specifying the index of the parameter used. For example: MyParameters[1] to handle the first parameter passed to the procedure.
