I’m getting frustrating ☹

Why in Gods name this example doesn’t work???

**kirupa2** loads **kirupa1** in which is _gloal variable setup (_[font=Courier New][color=blue]global.\_myVariable = “XYZ”[/color][/font])

After clicking on **PLAY** button trace outcome is undefined!! Why??

You have example in [http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=100814](http://www.kirupa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=100814)

Please help,
