There is an example in the reference guide for function FillChar. Not exactly for ansistring. Try the following: var s : ansistring; begin setlength(s,100); FillChar(s[1],100,'x'); writeln(s); end; Hope that helps Gerhard _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
