Shane,

I test this using 1.0.13 ODBC and the long variable held its value at @wgt.

Just a suggestion, have e you used the debugger to test the values after being
set?

Checked the value when @wgt is executed prior to the msgbox being displayed?

You might also use a \n between the values: msgbox "aa="&aa&"\n
testlong="&testlong
Just to make the display clearer.
