Sorry for the inprecise terms...

If you go to the script editor, pull the script menu, you will find 
"Variable Checking" which enforces a local "explicitvariables"
for that script. IOWs, it checks your variables and messages or
references. 

This forces you to declare all variables but the big advantage is that
it will catch any typos in variables which are too easy to make...

Note that there is a similar feature in the preferences stack but for 
default
behavior across all your scripts.

cheers
