And I thought everyone new that ;)

>>A few weeks ago I asked here about whether to use or not the m. identifier and even though I was already using it, the explainations I got here convinced me even more! However, it did not convince everybody here since many have been using Foxpro since the dos version without any problems, never using the m.

>>However, with the update of the month, it created a bug since a variable called result was used in some code that now has a table opened in the current workarea when it's executed, and this table has a field called result !

Just type "m." and a list of all currently defined variables shows in Intellisense. With all the long variable names we use nowadays, it's sometimes hard to remember the correct spelling - so Intellisense helps here a lot.
