subject: Determining if a private

EW ->The type(nPrivVar) check works OK if I declare a dummy public
   ->nPrivVar (with value NIL), that will be overruled when a
   ->private variable with the same name is declared, but IMHO that's
   ->not the solution.
I always use ValType(), as there are some problems with Type(), and I
don't know of any other way around that problem. I've tried to handle
it, also, and just decided it wasn't a good practice to have
uninitialized variables. I did what you did.
