This should be simple!!!

In my now 3 year long quest to write just ONE useable Rev program, I was 
close but ran into something that I just can't figure out.  I have a 
checkbutton on a configuration stack (separate from the main stack) and 
a global variable that I set the hilite of the button to (mostly so I 
don't need long convoluted descriptions to get to the state from the 
main stack).

When it comes time to check the button state, I "put" the global 
variable and it says it's true.  The very next line is:

if gSaveInputPath then
    -- save the path to the file just used for next time
end if

This FAILS every time (I added an else clause to display "not saving 
path" just to make sure I was actually getting to the code).  I also tried

if gSaveInputPath is true then....   and that fails too.  If I check my 
global variables, it is in fact showing "true" so I can't figure out 
what's (not) going on.

PS: Thanks to Jim Ault for you response on the field question.  You were 
right that I'm not using groups on various cards/stacks to display the 
same information in different places.  I'll give your suggestions a shot 
as soon as I get this (hopefully simpler) problem resolved.
