Robert and All,

To throw a little more into the mix... I was unable to get the parameters to
pass correctly (after Staz's fix) until I put the string vars behind the
interger variables....

FN doSomething(aStr$,bStr$,cStr$,aInt%,bInt%,cInt%,dInt%) < -- Didn't work


FN doSomething(aInt%,bInt%,cInt%,dInt%,aStr$,bStr$,cStr$) < -- Worked
