Here's what he said and what I reply to:

"pre-file your VFR flight plan with DUATS
so ATC already has a strip on you at initial call-up, just like with IFR."


Yeah, and here's what he said earlier in the thread and what I initially
replied to:

"I've been told you can play tricks with DUAT, filing an IFR flight plan and
putting 'VFR' in the remarks section, but you shouldn't have to resort to
subterfuge like that for what seems like such a simple and logical thing."


We're talking about filing an IFR flight plan through DUATS with "VFR" as
the requested altitude for the purpose of generating strips for flight
following, not about filing a VFR flight plan for search and rescue
purposes.



If you file an IFR flight plan with a VFR altitude they'll assume you
want FF.


Exactly.
