Hello Fabio,
There are a number of ways you can do this. You will want to look into the
fileIO Xtra (tech note 3192 and 3177) and the 'value' function (see director
help). Basically you will use fileIO to read and write the text file with
your global variable information and use the value function to parse it back
into lingo again. You may also want to use lists to store all your global
variable information as well.
Hasta...
