      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;Hi All,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;For my Text Object box, I would like it to display a massage like this: "Forecasting Date is: Feb/27/2011"&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The "Forecasting Date is:" portion is just plain text, but I would like the "Feb/27/2011' to be a variable (ex. ForecastDate) that is base on user input through a Let statement in the Script (ex: &lt;B&gt;LET&lt;/B&gt; &lt;B&gt;&lt;I&gt;ForecastDate&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/B&gt; = input('Enter current forecast date");)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Help Please!!!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thank you&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Will&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
