Provide the capability to not change the DOCVARIABLE field value while updating fields

created 10 years ago (modified 10 years ago)

It would be helpful to have such an option when the  DOCVARIABLE field cannot be calculated. For instance, if the Document.CalculateDocumentVariable event is not handled and a key-value pair for the  DOCVARIABLE field is not found in the Document.Variables dictionary.
