ASCII code checking

[Henry]

Hi there, just asking how can i checking the ascii code for certain character, like the ascii code for "a" is 97. Then if i set a script to change the ascii code, the character will change, like if i set a=a+1, now the character "a" will become "b" or i set it to a = a + 3, it will become "d".

Regards,

Henry

I would create an external file ASCII.fp5 then use the relationship to fetch char/value.

Otherwise you could use Position function on field containing entire ASCII set
