   I tried the following   
      
   --------------------------------------------------------   
   Dim x As String   
   Dim y As Integer   
      
   ' created a for with a label on it   
   Private Sub Form_Load()   
   x = "string"   
   y = 1   
      
   Label1.Caption = "string " & x & "//  integer " & Str(y)   
   End Sub   
   --------------------------------------------------------   
      
   Saving, closing VB6 and reopening does not change case on x or y on my   
   system.   
      
   If I add a module and do a   
   Dim X As String   
   Dim Y As Integer   
   in the module it displays exactly the behavior you are experiencing.   
      
   Are you maybe reusing the vars somewhere?
