The issue in your slides is that your text entry variable is not the same as the variable you refer to.
Hi Karine, here's a pictorial of what Tom is saying.
This is how you currently have it set up. "Set TEXTEntry equal to the typed value". This is the name of your variable that you want the system to remember. Your variable would be %TextEntry%.
Then you tell the system to use variable "Writeyourname". However, that's not the variable you set up on the capturing page (previous page). You have it capturing it as "TextEntry".
So you need to change the variable on the capture page to "Writeyourname" from the dropdown list. Then it works.
Wow! Thank you so much for taking the time to help me, the visual helped a lot haha.
It's working now :)
Have a nice day!
