I want to edit a system variable and then save it as a new variable. The variable is for the short current date and we have a format we use as an example, 9 Sep 2011. Can this be done?
regards,

Can't speak to FM10, but FM9 appears to act as Frame always has:
So, no, unless an FM10 user can sail in here with happier news.
I just redefine a short date and let it go at that.

While it is true you cannot create or rename a system variable or use system building blocks in user variables, you CAN edit and modify system variables.
For what you want, modify your Current Date (Short) with these building blocks: <$daynum> <$shortmonthname> <$year>
