I agree it is clear... but I let you find the information in the doc. It's neither in the 'PRIVATE' Topic, nor in any variable scope topic nor in any place where you can find it easily or logically.

Just in a 'Private variable (defined)' 3 lines topic!

I think it's something important enough to merit some more developments...

That is just my very humble opinion. :)

Anyway, thank you.
