Hmmm. You might want to look at the String constructor methods.
In VB.Net
Dim myVar As New String("-"c, 65)
Dim otherVar As New String(CType("-", Char), 65)
Dim yetAnotherVar As New String(Convert.ToChar("-"), 65)
In C#
String myVar = new string(Convert.ToChar("-"),65);

Nevermind. Looks like PadRight or PadLeft will do what I want.
