nTag | AT_MODE | The tag for which a valid ASCII value is being requested. |
wIndex | WORD | An index to a particular element of the array of valid tag values. |
lpszValue | LPSTR | A pointer to a buffer that will contain the result of IG_ISIS_choice_get_ascii. |

The IG_ISIS_choice_get_ascii function fills in lpszValue with the string referenced by wIndex from tag nTag.
This function must be used only for tags which have a type of IG_ISIS_TAG_TYPE_STRING. Use the IG_ISIS_tag_get_type function to determine the type of a tag.
wIndex must reference the actual number of legal values defined for a given tag. The IG_ISIS_choice_get_count function can be used to determine the total number of legal values for a tag. wIndex must be at least 0 and at most the value returned by IG_ISIS_choice_get_count - 1. The constants IG_ISIS_CHOICE_LOW, IG_ISIS_CHOICE_HIGH, and IG_ISIS_CHOICE_STEP are not valid values for wIndex, since RANGE is an invalid branch type for ASCII values.
To determine the required size of lpszValue, use the IG_ISIS_choice_get_ascii_len function. Note that IG_ISIS_choice_get_ascii_len may return a different value for each member of an array of valid values referenced by wIndex.
