Personally, I don't think you should be using the $ sign (or any of the
other type signs) in your program. But, this is easy to fix (but requires a
little time if you have a lot of this stuff. Use VB's Replace functionality
within the IDE. First, and it is important that this is first, replace

Dim f$

with

Dim f As String

then replace f$ with f. By the way, I hope your variable names are a little
more descriptive than that.
