NumericUpDown User Input

matthewmossman

We have several reports that sit inside the following directory:

 

\\Data\Reports\Year\Month

 

What I want the user to be able to do is set the year & month using the NumericUpDown in order to set which report they want to use in the rest of the workflow. I've never built a workflow that also requires input from the user & I really don't understand how to pass the value from the NumericUpDown to the filename that is getting referenced in the InputTool.

@matthewmossman I've put together the attached example to hopefully point you in the right direction. While I would use the method on the left involving %Question.ToolName%, the method on the right using action tools is the more standard method.
