Script help on Variables and Case

[1para{god-father} 105]

OK having an issue and not sure why? The script spawns in fine (it is just a test so it spawn in the same for now) but it will not assign the Task to the Group ?

If i place the Task right after the spawn as below it all works fine , it is like the _grpP does not exist in the 2nd case ,is it something to do with the variable ? do i need to declare it so the 2nd case can use it ?

I know it is getting there as i get the Hint

works

	case 0: {
		closeDialog 0;
		sZoneLocal = createMarker ["sZoneLocal", [(position player select 0), (position player select 1) +1500 , 0]];
		sZoneLocal setMarkerBrushLocal "SOLID";
		sZoneLocal setMarkerShapeLocal "ELLIPSE";
		sZoneLocal setMarkerColorLocal "ColorGreen";
		sZoneLocal setMarkerDirLocal 0;
		sZoneLocal setMarkerSizeLocal [20,20];
		click = 0;
		_cpPos = markerPos "sZoneLocal";
		hint 'click on Map for Enemy Spawn Point';
		onMapSingleClick "sZoneLocal setMarkerPosLocal _pos; click = 1";
		waitUntil {click == 1};
		HINT "";
		sleep 5;
		_grpP = [getmarkerpos "sZoneLocal", EAST, (configFile >> "CfgGroups" >> "EAST" >> "BIS_TK_INS" >> "Infantry" >> "TK_INS_Group")] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup;

/////add task/////////

This spawns but will not give the _grpP the task ?

If you set the _grpP on the main scope in the begining of that script it will work.
