This is probably hopelessly obvious, but sometimes when debugging we
forget the obvious things... Rather than searching the file for
instances of "variableName", try searching for instances of
"variableName =" (and variations on that, such as "variableName .=").
Might cut the 5000 instances down a bit anyway. Good luck! :)
