FileFlex uses the global variables of the host development environment in a number of ways, including setting and retrieving the values of host globals using DBWriteRec and DBGetCurrRecVal. As a result, the internal FileFlex engine must be able to successfully interact with the global variables of the host language.
The functions DBGetGlobal and DBSetGlobal are not designed for your use. Rather, they are functions that allow us to test (in the validation suite) whether the global interface between FileFlex and the host globals work successfully. There's really no good reason for you to call DBGetGlobal yourself, for example, because it'll be much easier for you to just put the global value into a container directly.
