 The pipeline parameter contains the value of the expression.

 Consider the following which uses string comparisons and a pipeline parameter in the expression:
-**Set_Pipeline_Parameter_From_Expression**
+<code>
+Set_Pipeline_Parameter_From_Expression
 /PARAMETER_NAME= MVAL
 /EXPRESSION=(&::TAG_NAMES& == Utility) * 4.6
 /AS_INTEGER=FALSE
-**;**
+;
+</code>
 The goal was to set MVAL to 4.6 when the pipeline parameter TAG_NAMES was equal to the string "Utility";
 One solution is to separate the pipeline parameter from the expression.
-**Set_Pipeline_Parameter**
+<code>
+Set_Pipeline_Parameter
 /PARAMETER_NAME=TEMP
 /PARAMETER_VALUE=(&::TAG_NAMES& == Utility)*4.6
-**;**
+;
+</code>
 \\
+<code>
-**Set_Pipeline_Parameter_From_Expression**
+Set_Pipeline_Parameter_From_Expression
 /PARAMETER_NAME=t_Mass
 /EXPRESSION=::TEMP
 /AS_INTEGER=FALSE
-**;**
+;
+</code>
 \\
 Another solution, which is even trickier in terms of syntax is:
-**Set_Pipeline_Parameter_From_Expression**
+<code>
+Set_Pipeline_Parameter_From_Expression
 /PARAMETER_NAME=SCOTT
 /EXPRESSION=("&::TAG_NAMES&"==" Utility")
 ! /AS_INTEGER=TRUE
-**;**
+;
+</code>
 This forces Visual3D to recognize the strings as strings and the & is treated correctly.

 Global metrics can be set to a pipeline parameter by setting "GLOBAL" in front of the metric name. More information about expressions can be found [[Visual3D:Documentation:Pipeline:Expressions:Expressions_Overview|here]].
