Odd things happening...

[Tim Fischer]

I've come across a few issues where filepro responds in a way I didn't
expect and I'm hoping someone can tell me if it's something I'm doing or
simply something that can't be done.

1) contrary to documentation - @sn works in automatic processing.  Should
this be?  Basically if this is a bug that will soon be "fixed" it will break
my code.  (I'm currently dependant upon @sn in automatic processing)

2) Non-global dummy variables that are set in automatic processing are not
holding their values between simple screen changes on the same record.  I
thought that dummy variables would retain value so long as you were on the
same record.  I do not do too much coding in Automatic, so maybe it's just
something to do with Automatic?

I'm on fp 5.0.13R4 on Solaris 9.
