ah, I see. So the below...myobj.joe = 77; actually sets joe in the this scope?
seperate from the variables scope. Ok. kewl. This can keep errant code from moshing
with the 'privates'. Danke.
test.cfm
<cfscript>
myobj = CreateObject("Component", "test");
myobj.joe = 77;
WriteOutput(myobj.joe);
</cfscript>
test.cfc
<cfcomponent>
<cfset variables.joe = 55 />
</cfcomponent>
test.cfm runs fine and outputs 77.
BTW...on CFMX6.1
