The inner call will clear all the "local" variables of the outer scope as well. To really make this work, every single procedure needs to have its own, unique, variable prefix and then you clear using the prefix: $COMMAND MyProg SET VAR vMP_Something TEXT = 'Hello' RUN MyOtherProg IN Progs.APX WRITE 'Original variable vMP_Something still contains', .vMP_Something CLEAR VAR vMP_Something% RETURN $COMMAND MyOtherProg SET VAR vMOP_Something TEXT = 'Another variable' WRITE 'Local variable vMOP_Something contains', .vMOP_Something CLEAR VAR vMOP_% RETURN -- Larry
