Walter, I tried this, which is like what I think you posted:
* hosts: localhost connection: local gather_facts: false
vars_prompt:- name: "domainfile" prompt: "Enter domain short

This works. The set_fact makes a global variable for the entire playbook.

gather_facts: false
become: false
vars_prompt:
- name: "pemno"

Dick, I'm not getting that to work. For now, I'm prompting again for the
pemno withing the second set of tasks. That works, but isn't ideal. I'd

prompt in the second set of tasks:
*- hosts: localhost connection: local
I *think* the vars from vars_prompt are tied to localhost in the first
play, so if you need them in any next plays, you would need to reference
them as localhost's hostvars:
{{ hostvars['localhost'].pemno }}

playbook, based on what I've tried (as seen in the playbook,
