string$ :
I think you can use ToString() method to return the string representation of value .

abs
???? .

chr$
????


dim myarray(0 to 4)
dim myarray(4)

:rolleyes:

Abs returns the absolute value.
I think that in .NET is something like Maths.Abs() or Math.Abs()

the chr$ can be done in many ways:
If you're using C# just do "string"[char_position].ToString()
If you're using VB.NET then(I dont know without going to see) but a easy way would be "string".Substring(char_position,1)

System.Math.Abs(myNumber)
