return = objectName._setData( );

Details

The _setData method is a convenient method for setting the numeric or character value of an object.

The default behavior of these signatures is to call the object's _setText method if the requested value is character (that is, a character value is supplied for charValue); it calls _setValue if the requested value is numeric (that is, a numeric value is supplied for numValue). Some objects override these method to provide custom behavior.
