texte = I just did a test. What I learned is surprising. The following global tags can be eaasily overridden simply by setting them to text variables:[Date][ElapsedTime][FreeMemory][LastRandom][Platform][Product][Random][Time][ValidCard][Version]Isn't the whole idea behind global tags that they will *always* produce the value described in the docs -- thus the term GLOBAL tags?If so, then why can I override these values with a simple [text] variable assignment?Sincerely,Kenneth Grome---------------------------------------------------WebDNA Professional Training and Development Center175 J.
