I have this error, and i have no clue how to fix it.

CODE
        
        }
        m = 5;
    }
}  //ERROR : Name previously declared within scope


The error is saying that I have declared } previously in teh scope?! :confused:

If you delete it, you get a syntax error since it does have the final bracket.

Can someone please help me.

Sounds like you've missed a semi-colon at the end of a line somewhere along the way.

Or a double-quote from the end of a string literal.

Or something along those lines.

I checked throughmy code
All the lines end with a ;
there is no opened "" that might mess it up.

This is a really odd error!

oooh. I figured it out. It was because the name of the sub (or what ever you call it), was the same as a list I was using.

Jade, I don't mean to sound rude, but I've noticed all of your posts have a description that is utterly banal.

Would you please try and summarize your posts in the description so everyone else can decide BEFORE opening your post whether or not they want to read it?

For example, this post could have had the description, "variable scoping error".

Thank you.
