Sorry Mark,
This statement is inaccurate. If it were true this script would not work.
--> Cut <--
global a, b
set a to 3
set b to 4
display dialog my adder() as Unicode text
on adder()
return a + b
end adder
--> Cut <--
It would be more accurate to say - variables in the top level ("on run") handler aren't visible to sub-handlers unless specifically declared as global in scope (see above script) even though they share some of the other aspects of "global" variables.
