and it or something similar has worked many times before.

Yes like a bird who was flying but a similar animal (a dog) could not do that.
There exist no something similar in programming. It is similar or it is different and then behave different.
Keep always in mind a computer is no human, it does exactly what is told to do.
Although I assume Reed is for 95% right in his by Frank proposed answer. Is guessing something (in my opinion of course) we should not do in these forums.
If you have two different results, then show exactly the code for one result and what you get in another situation. You tell it is a bug. Probably in your program but then not in VB. But if it is a bug you should also in the official place for reporting that show two situations.
Maybe this can added somehow to this sticky from Reed, which I not only use in this forum.
