How is glTable used? Does it include path statements? Could you give one example? Does it refer to local or server tables? I am always full of questions! :)

I could be way off but I was taught to not use global variables in OOP. They provide interesting maintenance problems at one time or another. Creating an object and exposing its properties might be a good consideration. But then again, if it works don’t fix it!
