Create Persistent Global Variables Using the User Interface

You can create persistent global variables from the Persistent Variables List panel. The panel also lets you maintain those variables, for example, update, purge, or reload them.

To create a persistent global variable using the user interface

1. Enter the /PVARS panel shortcut.

   The Persistent Variables List panel appears.

2. Press F4 (Add).

   The Persistent Variable - Add panel appears.

3. Specify the name of the variable (without its global prefix) and its value. Press F3 (File).

The variable is saved so that it can be loaded the next time the region starts up.
