ZBasic, Modules 101

What am I doing wrong here:

A.bas - contains
public foo1()
public var1 as byte
-------------------------------------

B.bas contains all this code
private b as byte

private foo2()
b = A.var1 ' works as you'd think, and is clearer, but
b = var1 ' is the same since the scope of var1 is "entire project"

call foo1() ' works as above
call A.foo1() ' yields a compiler error. The A. helps show what module this is in
end sub
--------------------------------------

As I read the manuals, call A.foo1() is permitted.

One software project I worked on had a design review process. For each design/coding error (aka bug) that was found during development/test, the author had to throw a quarter in the bug jar. Unfortunately, we had quite a few lunches from that jar!
