Use Smart Text tags in an Active Work Instruction

When you use Smart Text tags in an Active Work Instruction, the tags you select are replaced with data from a specific source. For example, %AssemblyName% is a smart text tag that is replaced by the actual assembly name in the Active Work Instruction. If you change the assembly name, the text is updated automatically in the Active Work Instruction.
