If you would like to use a [[Web Page View Field Variables|variable]] as the default value for a [[Custom Field Type: Text – Single Line|single-line ]] or [[Custom Field Type: Text – Multiple Lines|multi-line ]] text box, instead of static text, you should enter '''"@@"''' simply include the variable(s) in the '''Default Text''' box on the [[Custom Field|custom field]], followed by along with any other text and variable(s) you wish to appear:
'''Example 1:''' To populate the default text as the current user's e-mail address use the following:
<pre>
</pre>
'''Example 2:''' To populate the default text of a '''Level 1''' [[Custom Field|custom field]] with the words "The client is" followed by the company name associated with the Level 1 entity, use the following:
<pre>
</pre>
'''Example 3:''' To populate the default text of a '''Level 2''' [[Custom Field|custom field]] with the words "The client is" followed by the company name associated with the Level 1 entity, use the following:
<pre>
</pre>
'''Example 4:''' You can use more than one variable:
<pre>
</pre>
'''Note:''' As with any [[Custom Field|custom field]] that has a default value, when editing the form if you clear the value so that the field is empty it will re-populate with the default value when saved. Accordingly an empty value cannot be saved in any field with a default value (whether it includes a variable or not).
