Your statement is OK.
You just need to declare the global vars before using them in your

1.- declare them on top of your script, before any opened script, like :

on mouseup
put 1 into MyGlobal1
... your code ...
end mouseup

Hi Tom,
My thinking is they only need declared if I am going to do something with
them. Is this faster?
I don't think so.
A global statement is in essence a compiler directive specifying the
scope of the variable name.
I doubt it comes into play at runtime.
