I am in the process of moving and have boxed all of my reference sources. I used to know how to do this, but I'm getting old and haven't been coding for a while. I know the answer is simple and It frustrates me not to be able to come up with it. In the code line:

newChar = Chr(xchr)

Where xchr will be an integer in the ascii range. When xchar = 65 why does newChar = "nothing", instead of "A"?
What have I forgotten?

Thanks in advance

It should work. Are you compiling from command line or from VB.net IDE? The IDE would trap most of this kind errors.

Make sure you have declared both newChar and xchr. Also make sure you are not making any typos.
