I am trying to setup a Text Find that finds a string.&nbsp; Then I need a script to add the string to a variable.&nbsp; Right now I'm trying to use this

Action.LogToVariable(FoundText)

I&nbsp;don't know how to specify the Variable I&nbsp;wish to log to.

&nbsp;

Any info would be helpful,

Hi Matt,

I've attached an example project which shows how to add the search results to variable. Hope it helps.

Regards,  
Paul.
