Hello everyone,

I hope I can write this question clearly. Anyway, it is about global variables. I have several files in my C++ project. One of which is main.cpp. This file comtains my main() function. I have a few other files in my project. They are server.cpp, server.h, strings.h, includes.h and functions.h. My main.cpp function #includes the includes.h file which includes strings.h and functions.h.

My main() function fills a variable located win strings.h called sysName[32]. My main() function then calls a function in server.cpp. Becuase I delcared a prototype in server.h, it works. Now, my function in server.cpp cannot read my sysName variable even though #include "includes.h" is located in its header file.

Why can't I access this variable. I think all the #includes are correct?

I have been searching google and have been working on this for like 2 hours now with no luck.

Thanks for any help.
