<nitpick>

VB's ubound doesn't do exactly the same thing as $; in your code snippet

b(0)
b(8)

are both valid elements.

Does opUpperBound imply an opLowerBound?

In VB you can declare things like

dim a(20 to 100, 5, 1 to 4) as Byte

LBound(a,1) -> 20

Yep. Visual Basic. Awesome language. *Cough*
