Tammy...you don't have to go through that series of menu selections
to pick a variable.
From your keyboard, enter <CTRL> 0 to display the available variables
in the bottom space of your FM document..you can scroll thrtough the
list with your cursor keys.
Enter <CTRL> 0 <L> <Enter> where <L> would be the defined letter of
the variable and 0 is the zero character, not the alpha character.
Note...you have to create these variables first. so, create a
variable named X for .xml file and a variable named P for PDF, etc,
For use on a PC, an alternative shortcut (that I find easier to hit than
the ctrl + 0 combination requiring a stretch from both little fingers)
is: Alt + s, v, <L> <Enter> (where <L> is the initial letter of the
variable). Hold the Alt key with your thumb -- it's easy to reach on
either side of the spacebar while your fingers remain on the home keys.
The key sequence activates the menu commands as if you were clicking
them, so you can verify your choice in the variables dialog box before
hitting Enter, if need be.
