Description

The OBJECT Get filter command returns the name of any filter associated with the object or group of objects designated by object.

If you pass the optional * parameter, you indicate that the object parameter is an object name (string). If you do not pass this parameter, you indicate that the object parameter is a field or a variable. In this case, you pass a field or variable reference (object field or variable only) instead of a string.
