The Expression Builder is an important tool used to assist in the creation of expressions.
The Expression Builder provides you with a hierarchical view of all supported functions and current variables and constants. Any of these elements can be selected to create complex expressions for insertion into task steps.
An expression builder popup button is available from within the Task Builder when editing a step. A small button appears to the right of the current field. Pressing this button (or the F2) while in an action parameter causes the expression builder to be displayed. An expression may then be visually constructed, tested and inserted into the step parameter.
Help for each function can be found by selecting the desired function from the right-hand side of the Expression and pressing the F1 key, or right-clicking and selecting Help for the popup menu. Help can also be found for a function by placing the insertion cursor inside a function name in an existing expression and pressing F1.
