TITLE: Bug: call by Reference search in the list of the fields
VERSION: 09.00.0000.1720 and previous
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
CLOSE DATABASES ALL
CLEAR
CREATE CURSOR pipe (anyName I)
SCATTER MEMVAR
ON ERROR ?? MESSAGE()
? 'Call is ',BLA(@anyName)
? 'Call is ',BLA(@m.anyName)
ON ERROR
USE
PROCEDURE BLA (p1)
RETURN 'ok'
ENDPROC
OBSERVED BEHAVIOR:
When the call by reference is made without the prefixed one m., VFP explores the list of the fields and if a field with the same name exists, it generates an error.
EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:
VFP does not have to explore the list of the fields when a call by Reference is done ( like on macro substitution )
