Usage
Use this function to retrieve
the text for a Control Center object on a CC tab. A typical use of this
function would be to retrieve the current text of a Control Center
object that was triggered and initiated an action such as a formula or macro. In
that use case scenario, you can call the function without
parameters and the ID's for both the tab and object will be automatically supplied by the system variables. If you wish to get the text for a CC object other than one that initiated an action, you must specify both the tab and object ID's
