Is there a way to build a module (component) that have some variables I can use in various blocks?  
I created this Module:

but when I incorporate it in a block, I have not the variable “cmpVarCat” available…

Thankyou!  
GM

@gm.cellinig8f Component variables in a Module stay within a Module. You will have to pass the value of the variable out of your Module into a variable in your project. Alternatively, you can change the component variable into a cloud variable.

You would have to create an [event](https://docs.thunkable.com/app-design/ui-components/modules#add-an-event) with a parameter to pass the value out of the module at the moment.
