Using variables when outputting text

Scroll Prev Top Next More

The Prism scripting language lets you use these four variables in any command that exports text. They are mostly useful inside of loops.

%F. The name of the file. This is useful in ForEach loops that import a set of files. %F is the file name before the period.

%X. The file extension (without the preceding period).

%S. The name of the current sheet. This is useful when looping over all sheets in a file.  You may also use this variable outside of a loop.

%N. The loop number. This is useful in simulations, which loop a set number of times.

%%. This outputs the percent symbol, %.  

These variables can be preceded and/or followed by other text. They can only be used within a script loop. Note there are additional variables you can use when writing text.
