I tried a couple of things but I haven't been able to make it work.

For example I tried the following:

alias char[] str;
str[str] X = ["TEST":"TEST1"];

Which does not work.

In fact I didn't have much luck getting associative arrays of strings to 
work at all.

Thanks,
Terry

You'll need to load it up with explicit assignment statements.
