So apparently at least in v30+ this is perfectly valid......


Which means RS 5000 does have string literals.......

What model processor? I believe L8x processors added some string manipulation features.

Adding to that you can use FLL with 0 as the source, the STRING as the destination, and 1 as the length. It will fill the LEN and every SINT with 0 and blow the whole lot away.

Will this work then? "FLL 0 Intake_TimeStampArray[0] 12"

Name: Intake_TimeStampArray
Data Type: STRING[12]
