Ken, are you suggesting that r is declared somewhere as ".0" (as in 
the auto table)?  But even if that is so, then is it expected 
behavior for the debugger to evaluate the test 'If: r eq "Y"' to true? 
Seems odd.

Tyler - what is "This" in your statement about "a function that r is 
passed to"?  Are you talking about r itself or something else?
