variable not holding value

[George]

That's why I define all my dummy fields and variables in automatic
processing.

Windows XP, Server 2008, filepro 5.6.07

I have a program which has been working for almost 5 years and now has
developed a big problem.

The program sits on 1 record.  At @entsel, a lookup is done to a file to get
a 4 digit code and a demand index number to use.  The values a placed in
long variables.  The routine the uses the index number to display a browse.
A displayed record is selected and another browse is opened and @bk prompts
are displayed.  

Once a key is pressed, specific values are posted to the displayed record.
Pressing <X> reruns the original browse.  

This browse is constructed using dummy fields to hold the appropriate
values.

What I have found is that all variables are now losing their values when any
@bk key is pressed unless I make it global.

Anyone have any idea why this should be occurring now?
