I went the other direction. on testReference put 8 into someVariable put 5 into someOtherVariable setVariable , someVariable -- second param omitted answer "someVariable was 8, and is is now:" && someVariable end testReference
on setVariable incomingVar, @someOtherVariable add 1 to incomingVar end setVariable Works fine. Seems logical that if passing by reference it would require a value for such variables, as it would otherwise result in referencing a variable that to the handler does not exist.
