?+..+ in Powerpro.doc <b>string delimiter</b> By default, literal strings in expressions are delimited by the double quote character. Alternatively, you can specify a different delimiter, for use within a single string. Use a question mark followed by any non-blank character; that character will then be the string delimiter, throughout that string. There are no escape sequences recognized in such strings. Example: var = ?+\"+ assigns var the string comprising a backslash followed by a double quote. ?+ acts as the opening delimiter and sets the next + to act as the closing delimiter. <b>Any character</b> that is not in the string can be used as a delimiter. Within the string, ? does not have that special meaning. This format is useful for strings that have nested quotes or backslashes that would be awkward to precede with the \ escape, which would be needed for a string delimited by double quotes. regards..
