>Set_Variable VarA is (without the quotes)
seems to set VarA to the value of the variable "is" in Writer 5.3.3.1.
Additionally, it wants a number, in spite of the availability of "Text"
formatting.
This might or might not be correct behavior; the documentation isn't at all
clear.
IMO, this doesn't seem to be the *BEST* behavior, in that Perl (for example)
states that a variable is a named string of characters that might or might not
be interpretable as a number. Yes, C++ proceeds to overload the + operator to
mean concatenation, but plenty of BASIC languages since time immemorial have
achieved this with operators (MID$) and casts, such as NUM$ and STR$.
