Syntax
String(number, character)
The String function syntax has these arguments:
Part | Description |
number | Length of the returned string. If number contains Null, Null is returned. |
character | Character code specifying the character
or string expression whose first character is used to build the return string.
If character contains Null, Null is returned. |
Remarks
If you specify a number for character greater than 255, String converts the
number to a valid character code using the formula:
character Mod 256
The following example uses the String function to return repeating character strings of the length specified:
Dim MyString
MyString = String(5, "*") ' Returns "*****".
MyString = String(5, 42) ' Returns "*****".
MyString = String(10, "ABC") ' Returns "AAAAAAAAAA".
