Chr Function
Returns a String containing the character associated with the specified character code.
Syntax
Chr(charcode)
The required charcode argument is a Long that identifies a character.
Remarks
Numbers from 0 - 31 are the same as standard, nonprintable ASCII codes. For example, Chr(10) returns a linefeed character. The normal range for charcode is 0 - 255. However, on DBCS systems, the actual range for charcode is -32768 to 65535.

| The ChrB function is used 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. The ChrW function returns a String containing the Unicode character except on platforms where Unicode is not supported, in which case, the behavior is identical to the Chr function. |
| Note
|

| Visual Basic for the Macintosh does not support Unicode strings. Therefore, ChrW(n) cannot return all Unicode characters for n values in the range of 128 - 65,535, as it does in the Windows environment. Instead, ChrW(n) attempts a "best guess" for Unicode values n greater than 127. Therefore, you should not use ChrW in the Macintosh environment. |
Example
This example uses the Chr function to return the character associated with the specified character code.
