Tom,
Please doublecheck in your tango.ini (or witango.ini) that the DEFAULTSCOPE option is set to local. It may be set to user, since the change to the local/request scope by default was not made until v5.0. If it is set to user, then my earlier post applies to your situation.

Thanks! _____ From: WebDude [mailto:webd...@cipromo.com] Sent: Monday, November 21, 2011 1:18 PM To: Witango-Talk@witango.com Subject: Witango-Talk: Scoping Variables Hi Folks, I am currently preparing to upgrade from version 4, probably to version 6 and then up to Terascribe. I remember that syntax and scoping of variables have changed. I am trying to prepare as much of the old files as possible before upgrading. I will probabaly have more questions to come, but I am going to take this a step at a time. First question is concerning scoping variables. Presently, almost all variables are not scoped so I am going through the ardious process of straightening these out. A few questions, if you don't mind... I would assume that you need to scope all <@ASSIGNs Most of the applications have no scope assigned to them presently. Of course, the default for this is "user" in the version I am using, but I am going to go through each assign and scope it appropriately. Almost all are goinmg to be scoped as user, but I have a few that can be scoped as local. Whenever calling on the variable, such as <@VAR blah> I am also going to assume these need to be scoped as well, as is <@VAR blah scope "user"> Do I need to scope any <@PURGE variables? When calling a local variable, should these be scoped as well? i.e. <@VAR blah scope "local"> What exactly is the request scope? This will be for futue reference. It appears to be the same as the local scope. When I upgrade, will I need to change all local scopes to request scope? Is this just a neam change to avoid confusion Thanks for any help! _____ To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to lists...@witango.com with "unsubscribe witango-talk" in the body. _____ To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to lists...@witango.com with "unsubscribe witango-talk" in the body.
