String$ versus String

A fellow developer uses "string$" but has no idea why he uses it. So I pose this question to the pros because I've always used "string".

What is the difference between using "string$" and "string"?

"uses "string$""

Uses string$ as what ? $ is not a valid character in a C# identifier so I don't see how he can use it.

Are you sure it's C# and not VB ?

It is vb.net perhaps I should have posted this question in a vb.net forum.
