Creating an ASCII-String by giving ASCII-Values

Schnippendick · 2006-07-17

Good Afternoon !

I have to create a 2 of 5 interleaved Barcode in one of our Reports.
Problem is, that though I have a suiting TTF-Font, I cannot craete the right string to be printed, just because I cannot build up the encoded string by ASCII-Values.

So I am looking for some means to create characters like in ol' DOS times by using "CHR(0126)" etc.

Can somebody tell me how to create such strings ?

Thx in advance

Stefan

txtSomeChar := 'X';
txtSomeChar[1] := 126;

and use it:
txtSomeString := 'blablabla' + txtSomeChar + 'blablabla';

Thank You fpr Your fast reply !

One more question: Does this use of CHAR-type variables generate ASCII oder ANSI characters ?

Hi u all
I tried out the example from kriki but changed the Ascii code from 126 to 128.
My Navison 2.60 is now returning Ç but according to this site:
http://www.idevelopment.info/data/Programming/ascii_table/PROGRAMMING_ascii_table.shtml
128 is €.
Now according to this site
http://www.asciitable.com/
128 is Ç.
So I guess my version of Navision is working with an old version of the Ascii table. Is there anyway I can change this :-k?

Thanks in advance

The value you get is depending on the used character set, you can change this in the regional setting. Do a search for this.
