FM6/Windows NT 4 (sigh, can't get them to upgrade to Win2K)

I'm curious if I can put a system variable inside my user created variable. The ex:

"Copyright � 2003 Your Company Here, Inc. All Rights Reserved."

Now, I'd like to use the variable <$year>, but when placed in the definition, it displays only the text.

Is there a method for doing this?

Thanks for any assistance.
