Once a script declares a global, it's in memory. Other scripts/stacks can use it or not, but if you try to declare a local variable with the same name you'll get a conflict because the global is still hanging around. Normally I think of this as a nuisance, but Chipp Walters once showed me a very clever way to take advantage of this "feature". -- Mark Wieder mwie...@ahsoftware.net _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
