Julie<1234> You're right Anton. 'name is assigned outside the sub-block and can't be referenced in it. Either the usual rebol word-within-context system doesn't apply to parse or it doesn't assign name until it reachs the last ']' in the sub-block. I assumed it would work similar to this:
>>name: "Anton" do [print name]
