    In general, if you want to reference a system environment variable in some tool field somewhere (DB Tool or otherwise) then you just type something like ${env_var:NameOfSystemEnvironmentVariable} in the field (works for password fields as well).

    However, SOAtest also has its own concept of "Environments" where you can also define variables. If you want to use a SOAtest environment variable (as opposed to a System environment variable) then you do something similar, typing a variable reference like ${nameOfPasswordVariable} (without "env_var" prefix) where "nameOfPasswordVariable" is defined an an environment configuration referenced by your test suite. For general information about how to setup and configure environments in SOAtest, please see this: Configuring Testing in Different Environments
