| - | The //%Variable%// token allows you to include a variable in a token text field. For Example, | + | ===== Variable Token ===== |
| - | Insert Text: Sally said “Hello” to %Variable%First Name%. | + | The //%Variable%//`<VariableName>`% token allows you to include a [[manual:Variables|variable]] in a [[:Text Fields |token text field]], where `<VariableName>` is the name of the variable. |

| + | You can (v7.2+) access a variable as if it is a comma separated array of text using the notation //%Variable%//`<VariableName>[3]`% where 3 can be any [[manual:Calculations|Calculation]]. You can use a different item separator by putting the text between the ] and % characters, eg //%Variable%//`<VariableName>[3]:`%. In v11+, the separator is processed for backslashes, so you can use //%Variable%//`<VariableName>[3]\n`% to get the 3rd line. Arrays are indexed starting from 1, and index 0 will give the count of the number of items, negative indices will index from the end of the array. | ||
| You can also use a short form of just //%Variable Name%// to include variables as long as the variable exists and has a value and there is no corresponding text token, although generally it is better and clearer to use the longer form //%Variable%Variable Name%//. | You can also use a short form of just //%Variable Name%// to include variables as long as the variable exists and has a value and there is no corresponding text token, although generally it is better and clearer to use the longer form //%Variable%Variable Name%//. | ||
