Hit send before I finished... I didn't mention that the closest I can come to what I remember doing in the past is the following. The only problem here is that it just pulls in the string's name and not the value of the string itself. So this doesn't work. There is a way to have it pull the actual value of the string and not just its name. I just cannot remember how to do it. Any help would be very much appreciated.
