AssMetadata
This non-blocking function performs Super Genie associations using the "Name" and "Value" fields defined on the Object Properties - Metadata tab, and matches it to the 'Name' field in the page associations table. While performing associations any additional metadata entries are ignored.

AssMetadata(hWin [, nAn])
hWin:
The associations will be created for the next Super Genie to display in the window specified. Enter the window number or
nAN:
An animation number that uniquely identifies an object. This object contains the list of metadata definitions that will be used to perform the association operations.This parameter is optional with -2 being the default value. When -2 is specified, it is the same as using the function KeyGetSursor() which returns the animation number of the current active command cursor. Refer to KeyGetCursor() for usage and behavior.
