But if the variable is declared AS, IntellisenseX pics the right PEMs anyway. It's more about the PEM's then the locals, I can remember (or even see) the locals more often. :) mdot expansion is a pain to me, but this is my preference.

This is, I hate that BeautifyX adds mdot to any method call (or array). It's not to tricky to remove it (much less then in SQL SELECT. That's havoc.), but the question was if it made sense. It would even be fine if one use mdot expansion with IntellisenseX and remove it afterwards with BeautifyX.
