Expression

An expression refers to either:

• A literal value, such as a number (e.g. 123) or a piece of text (e.g. "Hello world"); or
• A group of words or symbols that describes how to obtain the above (e.g. Contact.ShortName).

ContactsLaw allows the use of expressions in document templates, automatic descriptions for document types and workgroups, as well as various other areas. This is the basis for generating content that draws upon data from contacts, matters and so on.
