dot operator behavior question

Kevin,
Just an FYI, the approach of using eval() discussed here was how I attempted to implement a dispatch table, but unfortunately it does not seem to be working in my case due to what appears to be a bug causing the DVP to crash when used recursively (something I need to do for my use case). The following code reproduces the issue:

Sub Main()                                                                                                        
    result = SomeFunction(100)                                                                                    
End Sub                                                                                                           
                                                                                                                  
Function SomeFunction(x as integer) as integer                                                                    
    if x = 0 then                                                                                                 
        return 0                                                                                                  
    else                                                                                                          
        x = x -1                                                                                                  
        result = -1                                                                                               
        eval("result = SomeFunction(x)")                                                                          
        return result                                                                                             
    end if                                                                                                        
End Function                                                                                                      

In the case of the dispatch table I implemented this would cause crashes non-deterministically so I'm not entirely sure where the issue is. I can only guess it has to do with using eval() from within the context of another eval() call. For the time being I've switched to using an ugly if/else if/else if/..../else statement.
