Syntax /vardata <varname> <new datatype value>
Description Sets a variable directly to the end result of a datatype string. To use this, do not put ${} around the outer data to parse.
  • This is more efficient than using /varset as it skips a step. For example, /varset first converts the MQ2Data to text, and then back to MQData. /vardata converts directly through MQData.

Options
