A couple of ideas come to mind.....
Why not just use a Select Case statement 

Select Case strFuncName

Case "test"
	a = test
Case "Command1_Click"
	Call Command1_Click
etc...

End Select

or in VB5 you could use an Event, you could evaluate your string and raise
a specified event and your 'Class' (function with attitude) could watch for
its event to be triggered. Theres a good article on it in the November(?)
Visual Basic Programmers Journal.
