code:
; running under KiXtart 4.12

;dim $bSilent
;$bSilent=1

if not isdeclared($bSilent)
  dim $bSilent
  $bSilent=1
  ? '$$bSilent = '+$bSilent
endif
? '$$bSilent = '+$bSilent
When running this code the first line is printer correctly but the second line tells me tyhat $bSilent is empty. Uncommenting the top two lines will result in a correct output.
