Put this code in
TYPE test
typaa
ENDTYPENotice the lower case aa.
Now add this code, notice the upper case AA:
FUNCTION typAA:
ENDFUNCTION.
and the typaa in the TYPE changes blue (or the colour of your functions in the editor) and is now typAA and your code will not compile.
Same happens if you just enter typAA: for a label.
Even in a different case, disallowing a type name to be the same as a function name, might not be such a bad thing?
Yea, I guess it is not good practice to have type or variable names the same as labels or function names, but GLB is case sensitive so it shouldn't conflict in this case - it's the editor that's doing it.
Easy solution is to make sure you use unique names for everything as you say. :)
