The individual characters of a string can be accessed, appending it's index in curved brackets. They can be used like a varaiable of the datatype character.

Example: DIM b$[2] a$="test string" b$[0]="Wolfgang" b$[1]="Ortmann" ? a${5} : ! Output of 'S' ? b$[0]{6},b$[1]{5},b$[1]{6} : ! Output of 3 'n' a${2}='x' ? a$ : ! Output: "text string"
