GetResolvedText

Function Name:
GetResolvedText
Description:
Takes a potentially complex expression, possibly incorporating data references and/or functions, and resolves them with respect to a particular record. The expression, which is similar to the kinds of expressions used in text templates in diagrams, can optionally contain "{default}".  If it does, you can pass in an optional 3rd parameter that will be substituted for this, before the text is resolved.  If the data references and/or functions used in the expression do not match the record type of the record, they will not be resolved.

=GetResolvedText("Record found: %INDI% [=RecordId()]", %INDI%)
