I am not going to *play* with 3,5,7...N-th party globals, I am going to use them in my program. To use globals I must know them all and well. > The current answer is, you can't, unless you edit some 3rd, 4th, > 5th, etc party code yourself (adding namespaces or changing names). What a problem? I'll just replace names in any editor and will be SURE my program will work on 10th ... party code. MS editor edit.com replaces words in microseconds. > > Matt Lewis > Regards, Igor Kachan kinz at peterlink.ru
