It used to be on prePreOpenStack local prefsDir, prefsFilNam, newPrefsDb, prTabNams local dcmd, theData, vtb ... put "SELECT pref, pval FROM prefs" into dcmd put revDataFromQuery(tab,vtb,prefsDb,dcmd) into prAry split prAry by vtb and tab It threw no error loading prAry, and it turned into the correct array. Single step into the calling handler, and prAry and the global prAry was gone. Strict compilation was set in the preferences; I checked. I can't use explicit variables without a significant code rewrite, as "long name" produces a result that is incompatible with, well, livecode. I added "global prAry" after the local declarations, and everything worked fine (which also shows that prAry wasn't declared somewhere else [unless there is something even *worse* going on! :)]) It was similar in the other instance (actually, I think it was allowing prefsDb to be set localy even though it wasn't declared) -- Dr. Richard E.
