Returns a repeating character string of the length specified.
String(number, character)
The String function syntax has these named 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. |
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
Mod Operator, Space Function, String Data Type.
This example uses the String function to return repeating character strings of the length specified.
