Variables don't seem to be updating

Hi Tyler,

I expect you're getting several replies right now, because we've all
made the same mistake at least once. Your variables are actually
declared within the procedure, so they get reinitialized every time
the procedure runs and re-zeroed. You can make them global variables
(and reset them where you need to) by putting the Dim statements in
the user script instead of in the procedure.

HTH,
Susan
