Why are you using SCATTER in the first place? Variables create this way are private in scope and would be visible only in the metod they created in. Anyway, consider using SCATTER NAME.

SCATTER NAME loRecord
? loRecord.itemid 
? loRecord.itemname 
? loRecord.itemdesc

You can use form/class property instead of loRecord so it wouldn't go out of scope.
