websites. Check "Assign the value to an existing variable" check box & select
variable from the drop down box. You can create new variable by clicking on "Variable Manager" button.

Insert commands to search the keyword in other websites |
Depending on the website, you will have to insert commands to set focus in the search box.
e.g. For http://www.yahoo.com, you have to insert mouse click event to set the cursor
in the search box & then insert keystroke event to type the keyword in the search box.
Here instead of displaying prompt to take input of keyword again, use
the variable (Refer Step 2).
