Alessio,

What I tried to say is that it won't be allowed to have a #DEFINE for a variable WConstant, and "re-use" that by means of WConstant = "SomeValue".
I didn't try it, but as far as I know it just is allowed to do this, but all kinds of strangenesses occur.
So look in your programs for the WConstant variable, and look for some assignment command put in by accident (think of STORE too).

By the way, what is the constant value ? obviously some wrong value could cause problems (at a Replace etc.).

HTH,
Peter
