[AccessD] Solution Looking for a Problem

I published a class to parse openargs.  I like to set up 
openargs in a syntax as follows:

VarName1=VarVal1;VarName2=VarVal2;

In the class I grab the openargs, parse them, then store 
them in a collection keyed on VarName.

The class then has a method to pass in a varname and get 
back a varval.

I like doing it this way because the class can just be 
initialized in the header of any form (I do it in my form 
class of my framework actually) and then the form can have a 
standard syntax for obtaining the openargs, by name.
