Syntax:
attribute where {parameter value}
Function parameters: (If no parameter is specified, the command returns the names of all fields.)
parameter specifies the name of the parameter whose
value is to be searched for or specifies the number of hits. The following parameters
can be used:
maxResults specifies that
value is a number that limits the
number of hits. If number is less than or equals zero, the
number of hits is unlimited.name specifies that the names of the fields are
to be checked for occurrences of value.type specifies that
value is a single attribute type or a
list of attribute types. A field's type must be equal to the
single value or part of the list, respectively, to be
included in the search result.value specifies the search term for the respective parameter.
Return value if successful: the names of the fields that match the search criteria (stringlist)
