Thank you Eric for explaining that about the global variables and the fact that fields have to all be lower case.
Your code does kind of work, but its adding as text, not as math, e.g. if I start with versecount of 0, then press the ">" button, the versecount (and thus the window.fetStartIndex) becomes 015, then 01515. Is there a way to indicate that it should all be in math?
