Adding a Global Variable

1.    Place your cursor in the first available row and type the name you want to use for the global variable in the Name column, surrounded by square brackets ([  ]). For example: [ProjectXTaskList]

    CorasWorks recommends that you limit the characters in the name to letters and numbers only.

2.    Place your cursor in the URL column or press Tab and type the full URL to assign to that name. Note that the global variables are site-based, not list-based, so just type the URL to the site.

3.    Repeat these steps as necessary. When you are finished, click either Views or Finish.

    An error message will be presented if you attempt to add a new global variable with the same name as an existing global variable. However, you can have multiple variables with different names that point to the same URL.
