I vaguely remembering mistyping the new variable I added "global s nub" and then correcting it to "global snub". I didn't try to compile it that way, though. But the difference between what I saw and what was described in tip #23 is that s did not appear in the the list of global variables. That could simply be a difference between Rev 3.5 and the current LC though. Anyway, the problem disappeared when I restarted the IDE. -- Ciao, Paul D.
