Using Variables in Topics

Using variables will save you time and energy. You can create Topics and place variables amongst the text.

Note: Only the name of the variable appears inside the <angle brackets> in the Topic. It is not until your final output is produced that the value of the variable is displayed.

Adding Variables to Topic Text:

  1. Open the Topic you wish to add your variable to.
  2. Type the name of the variable inside <angle brackets> in the Topic text at the required position.

    Note: Variable names may only contain the characters 0-9,a-z,A-Z and _ (underscore). Variable names are not case-sensitive. For example both <Contact> and <contact> represent the same Variable name.
