[AccessD] Public Variables - Scope and Lifetime

Hi Drew

That's right, but perhaps you should mention that you _stop_ the code by the command END. Command STOP only pauses it ...

Ugh....not this again!  LOL.  Marty, that is not what happens.  If you STOP
your code, then everything gets reset.  That does include your global
variables.  It's not a maybe, and they don't 'lose' their values, the code
is stopped.  It is just like stopping an .exe, all values in memory are
cleared.  The difference is, with Access, that the Access Shell didn't stop,
and as soon as you do something requiring code, Access starts it all up
again, and so your Globals will be reset.

It's not a wishy washy thing, it is just how the code works.

	If you go into Debug mode with global variables. They maybe reset or lose their values..
