>Does anyone have any suggestions on how to define a literal string of non-typable characters in code or as part of a header (.h) file?
>
>We can use CHR(1)+CHR(2)+"ABCDEFG"+CHR(128)+etc. etc. to programatically create the desired string but in circumstances where the string is a know constant there should be a faster and more efficient way to do this instead of forcing the runtime engine to evaluate multiple CHR() functions and string it together each time...
If you don't want it to be evaluated every tyme, assign it to a local variable and use it.
