Top Previous Next

Function:	Converts unsigned 32-bit numeric value (dword) into its decimal string representation.

Part	Description
num	Value to be converted to string.

Details

Can be invoked implicitly, through the string_var= dword_var expression (see example below). Compiler is smart enough to pre-calculate constant-only expressions involving implicit use of lstr function.

Examples

dim d as dword

dim s as string

d1=123456

s = lstr(d) 'explicit invocation. Result will be '123456'

s = d 'implicit invokation

s = 666666 'will be calculated at compilation -- no actual lstr function invokation will be here
