print $$ variable

[Charles van Dortmond]

Hi,

In a script I have defined the value of a variable named $$VOLNAAM.... now I want to print the value in the lay-out.... I have no idea what format to use in the text field. The following formats don't work:

<>

<<$$VOLNAAM>>

&&VOLNAAM

Any idea??

You cannot put variables on a layout, hence you can't display or print.

You can, however, use Set Field to pass the variable into a field, or even have a calculation field that is set to equal your $$variable.

Thanks, this helps!

This is another way to display the $$var w/o a field.

P.S. there is an easier calc to put into the WebViever ( "data:text," & $$var ) but the first one is better for windows that has the annoying effect to show the borders of the WV.
