Hi Fred,

The excellent ARInside utility will make it very easy for you to find the 
existing workflow.  Run it against your server to produce the output files, 
then use any text search tool (e.g. grep, Windows Explorer) to find files named 
index.htm containing the text string "$SERVER$".


FWIW,

--Phil

That is exactly what I am having to do (It is just not fun trying to find and 
change all the workflow that uses $SERVER$).

Hi,

Doing a LEFT requires filter actions. In this case it should work to use 
something like this in the Run If of the filter:
$SERVER$ LIKE "%devars01%"
