There are various functions in TEDDS that can be used to control Variables.  To access these functions launch the Library Access system and select "Writing your own custom calculations > Calc writing documentation > TEDDS functions > Variable functions.  Execute the item or view the Preview for full instructions

To transfer a Variable from one document to another you can used either

SaveSectionVarsTextFile

which saves the Variables in the active Calc Section to a text file.  A file saved with this function can be calculated by TEDDS using the EvalFile function

SaveSectionVarsCalcItem

which saves the variables in the active Calc Section to a Calc Item in a Calc Library. An item saved with this function can be calculated by TEDDS using the EvalCalcItem function.
