Hi all,
I know that accessing a global variable or a flowcode macro in a C icon the prefix FCV or FCM is used however searching the wiki I found no reference to acessing a local variable such as ".myvariable"
Is this in anyway possible Thanks for helping out

FCL_VARIABLENAME
It's also possible to use macros - FCM_MacroName (params..); - Note that the macro's name isn't capitalised whereas variable names are.

apprecaite your help !
another questiuon is there away to make alocal variable static in FC i.a.w that it retains its value when going out of the macro and when retuning to it ?

Probably that would require a cheat....
Declare the variable in a C block and then assign to a local - and at the end of the macro 're-assign to the 'static'
Start of macro:
Then end of macro:
