Using Functions In Dialoug

Is it possible to have a cinematic dialoug that, for example, points to a certain variable? Say that there is a tournament, and you want there to be a little movie announcing who won the match. Would it be possible to have something like '*playername* has won the match!' or '*unitname* has won the match!' or '*teamname* has won the match!'.

Is it possible to do with the cinemetic transmission command?

Alright! I found out how to do it. If anyone would like to know how, the explanation is below:

I set the variable DisqualifiedMessage to the string ' has been disqualified' (note that the space before the message is important).

Then, I reset the variable using 'Set DisqualifiedMessage = ((Name of (Triggering Unit)) + DisqualifiedMessage'. I then used the command 'Game - Display to All Players for 6.00 seconds the text: DisqualifiedMessage'. It works perfectly! However, it doesn't work correctly when using the TiggeringPlayer function, as far as I know.
