MouseGetPos page

As you can see I declared $first and $second in the $first = MouseGetPos() at the beginning.

So why isn't it working?

The undeclared variables are of Local scope as the rules of Dim apply. You will need to declare them as Global to share between functions are pass as a function parameter.

Dim = Local scope if the variable name doesn't already exist globally (in which case it reuses the global variable!)

Thank you very much. Didn't know I had to declare variables if I want to have them global.
