SetDatatypePropertyEx
The value of card gives the actual card of the values list.
The list values of undefined (void) items is a list of booleans, chars, integers
or doubles, this list has a length as givin in the values card. The actual used type
is given by the definition of the dataTypeProperty.
The return value always should be 0, if not something is wrong in the way this property is called.
This call has the same behavior as SetDatatypeProperty, however needs to be
used in case properties are exchanged as a successive series of integers.
Note: the client application needs to make sure the cardinality of
the property is within the boundaries.

Example
Here you can find code snippits that show how the API call SetDatatypePropertyEx can be used.
