Printing a text doc that has variables

[cchian]

I can show a text document with variables within AMS and the variables show their correct values, but if I print the document, the name of the variable itself prints out. Is there a way to have AMS print the actual value of the variables, too?

Re: Printing a text doc that has variables

Hi,
Sorry but currently there is no way to do this. The reason for this is that when variable values are displayed in your TEXT BOX the "actual" text in the Text file has not been changed.
Now, since the PRINT DOCUMENT action works on the "actual" text file and not AutoPlay's "Representation" of it, the "actual" text is printed. Meaning the actual variable name will be printed, not the variables current value.
If this were possible it would be an interesting and useful feature, I will pass this on as a suggestion to our developers.

mark.
