Parameter driven by outcome of Analysis

I have a saved analysis feature with the name "VOLUME_INSIDE", which is the volume of a closed quilt enclosing the inside surface of a bottle. By putting the following note in a drawing I can display this value.

VOLUME= &VOLUME:FID_3424

- where 3424 is the feature i.d. This returns the text, "VOLUME= 2441.9", where 2441.9 is the volume in cubic centimeters. This is because my unit of measurement is centimeters. However I want it in liters, which is of course 2441.9cc / 1000 = 2.4419.

I just want to create a parameter called "VOLUME_LITERS" with a relation which sets the outcome of analysis feature above divided by 1000, and put that on the drawing instead of the amount in CCs. How do I do that?

In the part relations:

volume_lit=volume:fid_3424/1000

on the drawing:

Volume (Liters)=&volume_lit
