Re: Performance with qualifier/scope (was RE: GETFILE() Returns Empty String in Some Cases)

[Laurie Alvey]

A few thoughts:
STORE can only refer to variables.
FOR...ENDFOR loops only use variables..
The assignment x = y implies that x must be a variable (you cannot assign
to a field using that  syntax).
The assignment x = m.y would remove any ambiguity.

There are a load more examples on the FoxWiki
http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~EssentialMDot~Wiki.

Can't argue with the numbers, but personally I've never liked STORE.  No 
good reason I guess except it never felt normal (but hey, that's 
ok...use the Fox at its best, however that is!).
