Oddball stuff - Querks

The example below should not be used - thank you Lars H for pointing this out and explaining it to me:

   set foo "this is cool"
   set bar foo
   puts [expr $$bar]

tcom note

Excel and tcom code below worked:

            set EMPTY ""
            $cells Item $row $column $EMPTY

whereas the following did not appear to work for me:

            $cells Item $row $column ""
