Hi VFPers,

Thought I will create a new message. And seeing it was discussed in another thread, I thought it might be a good idea to do something similar using some of the features of .NET

Lets look at the basics of reversing a string: "12345" -> "54321", the recursive way. Yes you heard correctly Recursive

FUNCTION Reverse(cStr AS STRING) AS STRING
  RETURN iif(cStr.Length < 2, cStr, Reverse(cStr.Substring(1)) + cStr.Left(1))  && .NET 0 based
  && The good old XBase alternative
  RETURN iif(Len(cStr) < 2, cStr, Reverse(SubStr(cStr, 2))  + Left(cStr, 1))
ENDFUNC

Voila 1 line of code to reverse a string

Hope this is still of interest to some.
