I have recently returned to writing PB code after a break of 6 years, so I am now very forgetful of coding details, but have managed to satisfactorily complete a couple of test/exercise programs.

P.S. In the Preference window for Issues ...

In my opinion Debug 1.4+1.4 resulting in 2.7999999999999998 rather than 2.8 is not a problem, as a properly-coded program will always specify the number of decimal places to be given in the output so that it looks neat in the GUI (or other) display.
So, instead of coding 1.4+1.4, the final version ...

When I email a PB compiled executable (either 32-bit or 64-bit) to my brother [and to others] and he tries to run it under 64-bit Windows 7 Ultimate he always gets the error message "Your internet security settings prevented one or more files from being opened". This is true even if:-

How do I display the values of shared variables in the Variable Viewer window whilst debugging? They are not shown by default.

[Shared variables are those declared by the keyword 'Defined' in the Main scope AND declared by the keyword 'Shared' in selected procedures]

Thank you User_Russian for your working code.

However, I have a query:
Why does result in a different text size from even though the default text height is 20 as set by ?
