The following constants are supported when creating conditions.

Control character constants

Control characters are special characters that are used when there is no way to enter them into a constraint other than by using the constant. For example, no mechanism exists to add a carriage return to a constraint without using the CR control character.

Control Character	Description
Back	Backspace
CR	Carriage return
CRLF	Carriage return followed by line feed
FormFeed	Form feed
LF	Line feed
NewLine	New line
NullChar	Null character
Tab	Tab character
VerticalTab	Vertical tab character

Control characters are treated as strings within the conditions language and can therefore be used wherever a string is valid.

CurDir - The current active system directory. This value is treated as a string.

Now - The system date and time. This value is determined when the condition is evaluated, not at the time it is defined. This value is treated as a date/time value.
