Maybe I'm not getting it. No, I think I'm saying the same thing you are. Local variable have, and should have, a local scope. They can't be seen or used or otherwise accessed outside that scope. Bug global variables violate that scope - they're always around poking their global noses into all the other namespaces. You can have a local xyz in one script and a local xyz in another script with no problem. But having a local xyz and a global xyz both available in the same script just strikes me as an accident waiting to happen. -- -Mark Wieder mwie...@ahsoftware.net _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
