I am relatively new to workflows and have only written some basic code in the past in another applications, so this will seem like a very dumb question to many. I am having difficulty in understanding how to access the data that would be input by a user into a single textbox in a form.

 

The textbox ID is "TextBox1" and the Argument Name is "argUserInput".

 

I have a string variable called strUserInput to which I want to assign the argUserInput. How do I do this?

 

something like form("argUserInput") or form("TextBox1").Value ???

 

I don''t know how access the form object to get to the textbox item. Do I first need to assign the form to a variable and if so, how do I do this?

  I've just worked this out after I found and example workflow that came with Essentials. I declared a string variable and assigned it to the output argument. All working now :-)
