 Syntax  | 
 s$ = STRING$(count, {code | string_expression})  | 
| 
 Remarks  | 
 STRING$ with a numeric argument returns a string of count copies of the character with the ASCII code of code, where code is between 0 and 255, inclusive. STRING$ with a string argument returns a string of count copies of the first character in string_expression. The following functions all return a string of 8 spaces: A$ = STRING$(8, 32) A$ = STRING$(8, " ") A$ = STRING$(8, $SPC) A$ = SPACE$(8) A$ = REPEAT$(8, " ") A$ = REPEAT$(8, $SPC) Use REPEAT$ to make multiple copies of a multiple-character string, and SPACE$ to return a string of space characters.  |
