Hello,
I saw this post: http://www.chronoengine.com/forums/posts/f2/t20555.html which explains how to insert article text into a variable so you can use it anywhere in the form. But I've used this code but it's not working. I used the debugger and the article_text variable just doesn't come up, it looks like it's not saved at all. Maybe is the code outdated?
