The only global variable I use in my application is oApp. I don't see any reason to prefix it with additional 'g'.

>After having had a nice conversation with JimB (Re: Public variables Thread #667392 Message #668939) I'd like to propose to the community to use g as scope indicator for variables that are declared public OR PRIVATE in the MAIN program. The g then indicates that it are GLOBAL variables. Global (g) is then simply an indicator that they're visible to the entire application. Here's an example of a main program.
