Passing variable in sequence???

[moose2004]

How do you pass a variable in a beqinsq(functionName(var))?? I know how to pass it like this functionName(var) but is it possible to do in the beginseq call?

No, you'd have to use a global variable, or if you want to be real fancy, create a class and start a thread from within the class. If you aren't creating a big app and haven't done any OOP, stick with the globals. I'd probably name the globals after the sequence name. Something like:

sequenceName_varname

Sequences started with beginseq() are not reentrant (i.e. if you call beginseq() while a sequence is already running, it won't start), so there is no issue there. Note that sequences called as functions are reentrant, so make sure you use globals to pass parameters only with sequences started with beginseq() and not called as functions.
