So, I've come to find that the problem I had earlier was caused by using the
end statement, which clears the value of all variables upon it's execution.
Can anyone suggest a way to Set all variables in the auto_open macro in such
a way that their values will be maintained after code execution stops? I
would like to avoid copying all the set statements I use to each
procedure... But I suppose I will if I've got to :)
