>>Over the years I've seen maybe half-a-dozen cases, in other peoples' code, where the programmer carelessly used different cases when referring to the same variable or other symbol name in a case-insensitive language.

If you code like your language is case-sensitive, even if it isn't, you never get burned.

I can't recall ever doing that exact operation, but I created a little test program:

lcSomeVariable = "123"
SET STEP ON

I have my mousewheel button reprogrammed to be a double-click, so I:
- wheel-click on the variable name in the debugger
- Ctrl-C to copy
- click on the Command Window to give it focus
- Ctrl-V to paste
