      Let's say I defined an environment variable called DatabaseUsername, and in the deployment plan I have a step that uses values from another variable called TargetDatabaseUsername.

      My question is can I use the BuildMaster's set variable value to do TargetDatabaseUsername = DatabaseUsername?

      I realize I can just overwrite the DatabaseUsername, but I find it confusing to maintain the actions when there is also SourceDatabaseUsername in use.

      Btw, I really like the work you guys have done! Looking forward to purchase some upgrade once I figure out all the modules I would need.

        Thanks Peijen!

        In this case, you would use the Set Variable Values action to set the TargetDatabaseUsername variable name to %DatabaseUsername%.

        When the action is run, the TargetDatabaseUsername variable will be set to whatever the value of DatabaseUsername is at the time.
