Accessing Non-Repeating Data

{text-data:text}{text-data}
  
{get-data:text}{get-data}

Accessing Group-Data

{group-data:group}
 {text-data:text}{text-data}
{group-data}
 
{get-data:group.text}{get-data}

Accessing Table-Data or Repeating-Data

{table-data:table}
 || Table ||
 | {text-data:text}{text-data} |
{table-data}
 
{repeating-data:repeat}
 {text-data:text1}{text-data}
{repeating-data}
 
{get-data:table.0.text}To access first row of table.text{get-data}
 
{get-data:repeat.1.text1}To access second row of repeat.text{get-data}

Unlike Report Info, this macro can tell when it is inside a scaffolding Table Data or Repeating Data macro and will access locally-stored properties within the repeating section.
