I use k_localvar (Naomi gave you the link already and is not perfect) but something else you can do, albeit a little too late for what you want, is to set _vfp.LanguageOptions = 1, then the debugger will let you know which variables had not been declared in the debug out window when you run the program, not the same but it helps a bit



>Just Dangit! I'm a fairly skilled programmer, but a apparently a terrible typist/speller. 9 times out of 10 when I my app bombs (while I am running it from the IDE during development), it is not becuase of bad logic, but simply becuase I have misspelled a variable name in a method. Good grief I am tottaly tired of that. I sure wish the thing would figure that when I close the code window, or even better, when I am typing.
