(This is just an example; the message will look different depending on how your form sends the submitted details.
The program will now highlight the extracted text anytime you enter something into the "Starts from" text box, use a regular expression, and so on.
NOTE: After you submit the form, if the message doesn't arrive there it probably means there's some communication problem between the form and FollowUpExpert. Read this to learn more.
