Completely wrong :) You apparently have the luxury of only working on programs written by yourself.
In my world, we are called upon to make rapid changes in programs written by twenty programmers over twenty years. You haven't specified *how* you ensure that your counters are unique, and by the way, the issue is not just counters, but any variable. -----Original Message----- From: Mecki Foerthmann <[email protected]> To: u2-users <[email protected]> Sent: Thu, Jan 26, 2012 12:13 pm Subject: Re: [U2] Passing by Value What has the length of the program to do with it? always abide to the rule that a for next counter in any internal ubroutine has to be unique. hat way even if the sub is called from within a for next loop the ounters never conflict. o it doesn't make any difference whatsoever if a program is 80 or 8000 ines long. BTW a program with 8000 lines is usually a sign of poor design.
