I have now tried a couple of more things. I have changed the global definition from Public to Private to Global to Dim and back again to Public. Same result no matter what. I have even removed the global definition, and I have searched through ALL the modules after the variable to make sure it's not declared elsewhere. STILL the error message says that it's already defined! I would like to know where, because the Find thing (Ctrl+f) can't find another definition of NDice than the ReDim on which the error occurs! I have searched for Dim NDice, Public NDice, Private NDice and Global NDice, nothing found except ReDim NDice (once – the one on which the error occurs). Well, I'll continue searching. I have now made a copy of the whole document for wild debugging, so I will try the most brutal things I can think of now, like removing entire modules to see if I can at least find in what module I need to have a closer look at… Any ideas are very welcome! I'm kind of losing my hair here… :P Kind regards Johnny Rosenberg ジョニー・ローゼンバーグ -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe send email to dev-unsubscr...@api.openoffice.org For additional commands send email to sy...@api.openoffice.org with Subject: help
