[fpc-pascal] Selecting Records with a variable

[James Richters]

No, this is just a simplified example.. 
The procedure will be working with dozens of records, so I need a way to call the procedure and specify which element of all the records to use...
it will not be called for every element.

do you need to show only one at a time or are you looping through and printing all of them each time?

if you need them all every time and if you are looping through them, don't... 
just call ShowAxis and writeln all of them one after the other...

Procedure ShowAxis;
begin
   writeln(AxisValue.X);
   writeln(AxisValue.Y);
   writeln(AxisValue.Z);
   writeln(AxisValue.A);
   writeln(AxisValue.B);
   writeln(AxisValue.C);
end;
