Try listing the parameters of the operation.

Here's the list for what can be genererated in a transform.  http://www.sparxsystems.com.au/EAUserGuide/index.html?transformingobjects.htm

Here's the list of macros for getting values. http://www.sparxsystems.com.au/EAUserGuide/index.html?fieldsubstitutionmacros.htm

Look around those two pages for more information.

Another recommendation for the next release: More documentation on the transform language.  Maybe would keep me from bugging you so much Simon :)

One thing in particular that took me a while to figure out was some of the reserved words.  For example, the "Initial" value of an attribute is modified via the keyword "default".  While I managed to eventually find this under the docs, it was only through trial and error that I figured out that the keyword "constant" is used to control the "Const" attribute - NOT "IsConst" as the documentation suggests.
Please report these via a bug report - use the link near the bottom of any forum page.

That way this issue will get directly to Roy's team, who will see that the documentation gets updated.

Thanks much,
David
No, you can't have it!

Hi Simon,
Thanks, that worked.  I created a list and then called a Parameter template using the list and was able to get context that way.  

Midnight,
Thanks for the tip.  I'll add it.
