Hi,

Am am using a global variable which is declare at the start of my code:-

Global Time_Correction#

And defined as a varible in the main loop....

Time_Correction#=elapsed#/10

Problem is the variable seems to get ignored although it can be printed in the loop...

Question, do I need to declare the Global varibale differently ?

Not an Integer as the varible is typically 0.016 format etc..

Thx

I tried that.... Don't understand what is happening... if I replace the variable which is generated in the loop with a fixed variable pre the Loop it works fine...

If I print the varaible during the loop I can see it changing but the calculation using it don't work... this is puzzling...
