Reset Locals?

[Peter T. Evensen]

I think what Trevor said is if you modify you script to be:

local myCheck = ""
on mouseUp
   if myCheck = "" then
     put 5 into myCheck
   else put 2 into myCheck
   answer myCheck
end mouseUp

(Note the assignment to myCheck in the local declaration)  Then you will 
get the desired result (as you did in 2.6.x)
