Problem with STRING(ascii code, number)

[claudevdw]

In the sample code ASCI.BAS in examples/console,
I get an error message for

PRINT STRING$(196, 5)

"error 9 line 5 expect an operator but found `5` "

Which operator ?

STRING(196, 5) doesn`t work better than STRING$(196, 5)

Thanks for help.

Think you found a print command bug
please program it like this

dim s as string

s=string$(196,5)
print s

or:

const s=string$(196,5)
print s

i hope this will help you out, in the mean tim i shall fix the bug
best regards marco

It works

Thanx
