Creating Variables in Eprime

[David McFarlane]

Just so you know, PST Web Support likes to take these sorts of 
questions at http://support.pstnet.com/e%2Dprime/support/login.asp 
.  They promise response times of 24-48 hours to all requests, so you 
might do better there than here.  And if you feel charitable you may 
then post the answer back here for the sake of others.
