ASCPOS()
Determines the ASCII value of a character at a particular position within a
string
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
ASCPOS(<cString>,[<nPosition>]) --> nAsciiValue
Arguments
<cString> Designates the character string that is searched.
<nPosition> Designates the character of <cString> for which the
ASCII value is determined. The default character is the last character.
Returns
The function returns the ASCII value for the character at <nPosition>
within <cString>.
Description
ASCPOS() allows you to determine the ASCII value of a selected key
within a character string.
Notes
. The returned value can be between 0 and 255.
. If <cString> is a null string, or <nPosition> is larger than
the length of the string, ASCPOS() returns 0.
. If <nPosition> is 0, the ASCII value for the last character is
returned.
Examples
. You can specify:
? ASCPOS(String, 5)
. Or you can specify:
? ASC (SUBSTR(String, 5, 1))
