Hi Jim,

You could precede your declarations with a PUBLIC statement and then highlight and press enter or right click and select execute selection...

public lcstatute1, lcstatute2, lcstatute3, lcstatute4, lnsub
m.lcStatute1 = ''
m.lcStatute2 = ''
m.lcStatute3 = ''
m.lcStatute4 = ''
m.lnSub = 1

...from there you can ? m.lcStatute1, etc since the variables will exist.

Just remember to clear memo or release these specific variables when you are done.
