I have a program - and there are interactive pieces that use variables - both
local and global. I plan to convert the program to shockwave and run on the
web. How do variables act in this situation. The program does not require
interaction between users - I just want to know how the variables act.

I'm not sure I understand your question, but variables are the same in
both Shockwave and projectors. What gives you the impression they are
somehow different?

Two (or more) users who happen to be accessing the same shockwave files
from a server are in no way interacting. Each is running an instance of
the Director runtime engine on their local machine. The server is just
delivering data, not storing the value of variables. Thus there is no
need to worry about one user changing that value of another's variables.

I guess I am wondering, if two users are accessing the program - and one user
does something that sets the variable to 1 and the other user does something
that sets the variable to 2----- will these changes impact the other user?

Thank - that is what I was trying to determine.
