Is there a way to treat Input Variable as Text value?
Hello!
If I create a new variable called vTEST1 and input '2022-09' as the expression, when adding this variable to a table using this expressions $(vTEST1) it gives an expected output of 2022-09.
However, if I create a variable input box and choose input box as the type, then enter in 2022-09 it instead calculates the expression and gives an output of 2023 (2022 minus 9 = 2023).
Is there a way to achieve just the text value 2022-09 using a variable input field with an input box or drop-down box instead of it calculating the expression?
