I have a page named ChangeApprovalInfo.php - It has a function called Row\_Rendered as follows;

```
function Row_Rendered() {

    // To view properties of field class, use:
    //var_dump($this-><FieldName>);

    $RecordOwner = $this->RequestUser->CurrentValue;  
        echo $RecordOwner;
} 

```

Echoing $RecordOwner gets me the data I will need for a sql query on another page....

I have another page called ChangeApprovalEdit.php - This page has

```
<?php include_once "ChangeApprovalinfo.php" ?>

```

at the top of the file.

ChangeApprovalEdit.php has a function where I need the $RecordOwner variable as defined in ChangedApprovalInfo.php

If I add "echo $RecordOwner" on the ChangeApprovalEdit.php page, I get an error saying it's an unknown variable. My understanding is that I need to "make it global" or some such business. I know very little about PHP and the pages I am editing are long and complex. (to me, at least) 

* What do I need to do? I know that the information I have provided might not be enough to answer the question. I don't know enough to even know exactly what I need to ask. If more information is needed, I will edit and follow up.

pastebin of the files

```
ChangeApprovalInfo.php = http://pastebin.com/bSRM1wwN
ChangeApprovalEdit.php = http://pastebin.com/AStG9pqb

```

EDIT: 
Changing Row\_Rendered to this seems to be more effective. I'm having trouble seeing WHERE I can later echo this variable... but I'm getting somewhere with this... 

```
function Row_Rendered() {
    // To view properties of field class, use:
    //var_dump($this-><FieldName>);
    $GLOBALS['RecordOwner'] = $this->RequestUser->CurrentValue;  
} 

```
