Chr Function

Returns the character whose ASCII value is passed.

Syntax

result = Chr( value )

Parameters
value	Integer,	The numeric value ("code point") of the character you want, in the range 0-127.

Notes

The Chr function returns the character whose value is specified.

The Chr function will return a single byte String when running on single byte systems and return a double byte string when running on double byte systems. If you need to get a single byte string regardless of whether the system software is single or double byte, use the ChrB function.

Examples

These examples use the Chr function to return the characters whose ASCII values are specified.

Dim Tab,CR as String
Tab=Chr (9) //returns a tab
CR=Chr(13) //returns carriage return
CR= Encodings.ASCII.Chr(13) //also returns carriage return
