Hi Folks, I'm trying to get up to speed with variables but I am missing something obvious or the documentation is not clear. In the example the escaped \cm generates an escaped character not recognized error message. If I stick it in a layout block it is recognized. Then however the variable is not longer seen outside that scope. The use of the variable name "name" to hold the value "Wendy" causes a warning that "name" is a keyword.
That's because name is a keyword. Try a word that isn't a keyword, like thisName, for example.
