Why doesn't this write to the variable until the 2nd time the button is pressed?

[Jaylada]

When the button is first pressed, I can see in my debugger the data LocalID has a value, but why doesn't it write to the _root.PrimaryID until I press the button a second time?


//////////////
submit1.onPress = function(){

   getDatax.UniqID=UID;//Long string version of ID
         getDatax.sendAndLoad("GetID.cfm", getDatax, "POST") ;

getDatax = new LoadVars()
    getDatax.onLoad = function(){       
       if(this.writing=="Acquired") {
             _root.PrimaryID=this.LocalID;


      }}
}

Thanks in advance
