"e" is a valid workarea name.

Subject: Variable name oddity?
I'm sure someone has a rational explanation for this odd behavior??
If I run the following code it fails with a syntax error on the
method call, but if I use the variable x or y, for example it works
just fine as expected. Other vars that failed were a,b,c,d,f.
I didn't try any other than those..
Why is it that VFP doesn't like me using the variables of a, b, c, d,
e, f ( perhaps others? ).
LOCAL e
e = CREATEOBJECT("myclass")
?e.hello() <<-- Syntax error when compiling the PRG
DEFINE CLASS myclass AS Custom
FUNCTION hello()
RETURN "hello"
ENDFUNC
ENDDEFINE
Changing the e variable to an x works as shown below:
LOCAL x
x = CREATEOBJECT("myclass")
?x.hello() <<-- WORKS AS EXPECTED
DEFINE CLASS myclass AS Custom
FUNCTION hello()
RETURN "hello"
ENDFUNC
ENDDEFINE
