Well, see, that's what I would have expected.  But I get SINGLE_DAGGER instead,
whose name I could *not* remember the other day.

But wait: 

CHR(255)?

My code has 

CHR("255")

It's been a long time, but CHR is one of the things that still takes a numeric 
literal?  Could that be my problem?

This came off a machine running, maybe 4.5; I think the current machine's on 5.0.

Cheers,
