Chr Function

Description

Returns the character associated with the specified character code.

Syntax

Chr(charcode)

The charcode argument is a number that identifies a character.

Remarks

Numbers from 0 to 31 are the same as standard, nonprintable ASCII codes. For example, Chr(10) returns a linefeed character.

Note Another function (ChrB) is provided for use with byte data contained in a string. Instead of returning a character, which may be one or two bytes, ChrB always returns a single byte.
