What is [varname]?

I read thru MSDN documentation but could not find syntax explanation about
this special form of declaration.

Need more information on this.

Neo,

Some people like to make terrible looking programs.

Dim [String] as String
[String] = "What a terrible use is this"

This can be done in more situations, it is seldom it useful, however you see
it often in samples which are direct recoded from C# to VBNet, where there
is a distict between upper and lower case, which is (luckily) not in VBNet.

I hope this gives an idea.
