Would the following be a problem? (It's from the Director Documentation).
"do Usage do stringExpression Using uninitialized local variables within a do command creates a compile error. Initialize any local variables in advance. Note: This command does not allow global variables to be declared; these variables must be declared in advance." It would be nice to be able to create variables on the fly. It seems so simple but once tried is very puzzling, at least form me.
