Thank you :))

I forgot about the ZMI Help :-} But there was no *Form*. Anyway, I was 
looking for how to do something similar to this. In DTML, after making a 
round-trip to Formulator, one can call variables thus:
<dtml-var my_var_from_the_form_that_user_filled_out>
I've tried to research how to do this one myself before asking, but how do 
I do this?
Thanks again,
beno
