BB> I read somewhere that procedures should be STATIC, as in:
BB> SUB DoIt (s$) STATIC
BB> FUNCTION DoItAgain (s$) STATIC
BB> Anybody know what this does and why it matters?
     Direct from STATIC Help:
    -------------------------8<------------------------
 STATIC - BASIC declaration that makes simple variables or arrays
          local to a procedure (or a DEF FN function) and preserves
          the variable values between procedure calls
    -------------------------8<------------------------
     I don't believe "should be", but "could be": if
you want the value to remain the same when you call the
procedure again, then STATIC is useful.  You can read
more in Help.
