Where did you define the variable? I mean, are you sure that it's "visible" when you Replace? If you define a variable in let's say a click event, the variable will only be visible to the object in which it is defined. In stead of a variable, try with a property. Persoanlly I use _SCREEN.AddProperty() a lot, for instance _SCREEN.AddProperty('Companyname','My company Ltd'). So in stead of having a variable cCompany I have _SCREEN.Companyname which is always available, just like a public variable. I know that other people use an object based on the Empty class for the same purpose.
