No they are not, they are scoped to the procedure. I am not sure about the PI variables because I haven't had a reason to check but I would bet that they are scoped local also.

I had a program template that I converted to the 6.1 "Full Main" procedure format. Had some global vars that another sub procedure expected to contain values loaded by the main procedure. In testing them they still contained the initial values, as I should have expected if I had thought about it, but the local vars in the main procedure contained the expected values.

I didn't think of that!

When you declare a main procedure in 6.1 with the MAIN keyword, are the variables declared inside the main procedure global?
