    Guys, he told you about NAV 2009 and forms. Not pages.

    Try create TextBox and change property SourceExpr to the name of your variable.

    What do you mean by does not show on form? you need to add the variable same as fields only difference is you choose C/AL symbol menu not field menu. select the variable and click on OK. The variable will be added.
