 A character assignment stores a character string into a
 <font size="-1" face="Arial black" color="red">EXTREMA</font> character variable.
 An assignment has the form: <CODE>variable = 'string'</CODE>,
 where <CODE>string</CODE> is some combination of character
 strings enclosed in quotes and character functions. For example:</P>

 <font color="blue"><PRE>
 T = 'This is a string '//RCHAR(A)//' another string'
 </PRE></font>

<P>
 <I>Note:</I> <code><a href="../Functions/StringManipulation/rchar.htm">RCHAR</a></CODE> is
 a function that converts a number into a character string.</P>
