Advanced Variable Access in DriveWorks Rules

Using a variable value in a rule can be tricky because deciding which variable to use is a variable in itself.  For example, if you have 40 variables named V1, V2, V3 and so on, and you want to display the value of the correct variable based on what a user chooses in a control called VarNum.  In Excel, you can take advantage of the INDIRECT function.  The syntax would be: INDIRECT(“DWVariableV” & VarNumReturn).
