Check if row in table does not exists for custom code

Hi team,

Im creating a logic to find values using a row name like below:

Table("WO_ConfigTable")["Dummy_"+something]["Line"]

where "something" can change due is string variable in my model , but there are cases where i dont have the proper row header name and that is ok but this issue appear below when i have a not valid row header:

exception: FlexScript exception: Dummy_Generic is not a valid row name for Global Table "WO_ConfigTable" at <no path> c: <no path> i: <no path>

Could you please let me know what i can use in order to return "0" for the null values? in order to dont have issues in the system console.

I tried using "if(Table("WO_ConfigTable")["Dummy_"+something]["Line"]==NULL)" but not work

Thx a lot

Software Version:

FlexSim 20.1.3

flexsim 20.1.3 null rowheader no path

If your table is a treenode table, you can access its subnodes to see whether the row exists:

Table myTable = Table("GlobalTable1");
string rowName = "Dummy_Generic";
string colName = "Line";
treenode tableNode = myTable;
if (!tableNode.subnodes[rowName])
    return 0;
return myTable[rowName][colName];
