You know sticking to variables you expose your code to situation when it will stop to work in ver. 6 or 7 or 8 :). VFP is not variable-oriented environment anymore. If you still want to use Scatter/Gather construction then look at SCATTER/GATHER NAME ObjectName, and you can always provide reasonable and checkable scope of this object linking it to form/app property.
