Fine in text box, garbage when in expression

[JustinDallas]

Hello Everyone,

So I've got a piece of title creation logic that appears quite a bit in my application

=IF( SubStringCount( GetFieldSelections(TerritoryDistrict ,'|'), 'ALL'),'North America',
  IF( SubStringCount( GetFieldSelections(TerritoryDistrict ,'|'), 'NOT District 7') , 'US',
  IF( SubStringCount( GetFieldSelections(TerritoryDistrict ,'|'), 'NOT Agricultural|District 7') , 'US Less Ag',
  GetFieldSelections(TerritoryDistrict ,','))
  ))

When I put this into a Text Object as the text, it evaluates fine.  However, when I put this expression into a variable, and then tell a text box to show that, I get "Garbage after expression: "Less"".  What am I doing wrong where it isn't getting parsed correctly in my TextObject?  I've attached an image of the offending characters.

Any help on this matter is greatly appreciated.

That's something weird about dollar expanding variables that return strings. If you try =vTerritoryReadable you should get a result.
