Return Value

Each global parameter must have a valid name that is unique within the document. To test whether a name is unique, use the IsUniqueName(Document, String) method.

While global parameters can be created with almost any type of data, there is a few types that are not currently supported, such as the ElementId type. Programmers can test whether a particular data type is appropriate for a global parameter by using the IsValidDataType(ParameterType) method.

Parameters are created as non-reporting initially, but programmers are free to modify the IsReporting property once a global parameter is created and happens to be of a type eligible for reporting.
