Dumb! I just figured out I was entering the input string in quotes.
So, I suppose the answer to my question is yes, type CAN be changed along a >>=
chain. I was having trouble doing it in a different problem, created this small
example to illustrate the problem, and then screwed it up putting quotes around
my input string.
Thanks!
Michael

This code works perfectly for me. What problem are you seeing specifically?
