in thread Hard syntax error or disambiguable parsing?

Well I have run into occasions where I would like use a previously declared variable as the loop variable in a situation like this. I know I can always just set a predeclared variable to be equal to the local loop variable, but that seems messier to me. Don't get me wrong I really like the local loop variable feature I would just like to "turn it off" occasionally. I probably don't understand some basic concept here most likely...

      I think I misunderstood the issue. I tried to build a test script to illustrate but it didn't work as I expected (I was able to do what I said I couldn't earlier).

      When I ran into what I thought was this problem in the past it must have been something else.

      Sorry.
