I have just upgraded to EWB 2.02 and my code now throws an error in the
Exception handling routine where it cannot see the variable 'status'
that is declared at the begining of the procedure.

Is this a breaking change or a bug?

procedure TForm1.SetMessage(msg: string);
   var status: Boolean;
begin
   status := false;

   try
      MessageEdit.Text := msg;
      status := true;
   except
      on E: Exception do
         begin
            LogOutput('Cannot set message : ' + msg);
            status := false;   <-- This throws an error
         end;
   end;

   Result := status;
end;

Sorry, just seen Matthew's post about the same thing.

Ignore this one and I will follow his post for a reply.
