Question regarding int -> string conversions

[Sartanus]

How would I go about converting an integer (say it has a value of 65) to the corresponding value in a string(yea, I actually want A out of this just one character. Or would this value have to be a byte in order to make the conversion?

regardless, what command do I need to use

Assuming you want 65 to be converted to an "A":

Chr(65)

Done.

Chr$(65) = "A"

...and...

Asc("A") = 65

...if that's what you're looking for.

Chr() returns a Variant and Chr$() returns a string. The difference is that Chr$ is slightly faster.

[batleycr]

I've read in other threads that adding the "$" as in Chr$ means Chr As String.

I'm a bit of a newbie, so can you answer this for me - does this only work with certain functions, or can this be used for any?

No, not all functions have the ability to return strings.
