Speed

Some general rules of thumb:  

DO...LOOPS are faster than FOR...NEXT loops.

Working with ASCII values are faster than working with STRINGS.   (IF ASC(text$,1) = 65  is faster than IF MID$(text$,1,1) = "A", for example.)
...
Umm....  Lots of other things I'm sure, but that's what I can pop off, off the top of my head. 

Wow, a lot of of these I hadn't seen - great info, thanks for sharing, Steve!
