a very basic question - sorry for that...

probably it's me, almost never having programmed large projects that
needed breaking up in different notebooks, so I seldom used the Get
(<<) function, but I seemed to remember this function would allow me
to Import&evaluate a notebook in another.

So, defining simply a=2 in a notebook test.nb, when I executed:

<<"test.nb"

 I obtained:

Notebook[{Cell[
   CellGroupData[{Cell[BoxData[RowBox[{"a", "=", "2"}]], "Input",
      CellChangeTimes -> {{3.41474*10^9, 3.41474*10^9}}],
     Cell[BoxData["2"], "Output", CellChangeTimes -> {3.41474*10^9}]},
     Open]]}, WindowSize -> {640, 750},
 WindowMargins -> {{150, Automatic}, {Automatic, 52}},
 FrontEndVersion -> "6.0 for Linux x86 (32-bit) (February 7, 2008)",
 StyleDefinitions -> "Default.nb"]

(a verbose output which I didnt remember) and, moreover, my "a"
variable still remains undefined!
What I'm missing (or forgetting)?

thanks!

Alessandro
