Giving me some trouble, I got rather sidetracked with the larger rather than immediate problem, so I remedied it somewhat by explicitly declaring all dimmed (and static) strings 'as string'. I left function arguments alone, they weren't a problem, and complelely undeclared strings as well of course. Terribly sorry if this clashes with something.

It did not conflict with anything I was doing, and I am quite pleased by 
it :)

I remember when I was quite emotionally attached to the QB $ suffix 
syntax, and I still sometimes speak the $ symbol aloud as the word 
"string" (such as "The salmon dinner costs string-fourteen plus tip") 
but I am getting very comfortable with its removal.
