Global Variables / Data (valid in the entire program)
Local Variables / Data (only valid in one block)
PII / PIQ I/ O M/T/C DB areas
Temporary Variables are deleted after the associated block is executed temporary storage in L stack useable in OBs / FCs / FBs
Static Variables are retained even after the block is executed permanent storage in DBs can only be used in FBs
