    You have this code:

    Dim sVarStep2 As String =BRApi.Workflow.Metadata.GetParent(si,args.SubstVarSourceInfo.WorkflowUnitInfo.ProfileName).GetAttributeValue(wfScenarioTypeID, 18000)

    Instead of 18000 you use SharedConstants.WorkflowProfileAttributeIndexes.Text2

    Dim sVarStep2 As String =BRApi.Workflow.Metadata.GetParent(si,args.SubstVarSourceInfo.WorkflowUnitInfo.ProfileName).GetAttributeValue(wfScenarioTypeID, SharedConstants.WorkflowProfileAttributeIndexes.Text2)

Instead of the actual numbers try using the constants: SharedConstants.WorkflowProfileAttributeIndexes.Text1 etc

Hi,

Thanks for the info, but what is the full syntax to retrieve that ?

Dim myText2item As String = BRApi.Workflow.SharedConstants.WorkflowProfileAttributeIndexes.Text2

That does not work, so what should I have ? There are no samples in the business rule snippets which feature "sharedconstants" or at least all that pop up when you start to type "shar" is related to sharedfilefolders

Cheers
