Variable Scope

The placement of variable declarations determines their scope:

Scope	Definition
Local	Dimensioned inside a subprogram or function. The variable is accessible only to the subprogram or function that dimensioned it.
Module	Dimensioned in the (general) (declarations) section. The variable is accessible to any subprogram, function, or event attached to the object in whose Script window it appears.
Global	Dimensioned in the Application_Start event or Application.PreInvokeMethod method. The variable is accessible throughout the Siebel application. For more information, read Siebel Technical Note #217.
