Add Flash Variable Definitions

Define Flash variables in Xcelsius.

For each Flash variable, create a corresponding global or object parameter for the interactive portlet in CA Clarity PPM. At runtime, the Web Service URL passes a value from CA Clarity PPM using the parameter to the Flash variable. The Flash variable saves the value to a linked (bound) cell in the embedded spreadsheet. Components in the visualization are also bound to spreadsheet cells, and the visualization data is generated from the embedded spreadsheet.
