WOct
Converts a number to a Unicode octal representation
Declare Function WOct( ByVal number As Byte ) As WString
Declare Function WOct( ByVal number As Byte, ByVal digits As Integer ) As WString
Declare Function WOct( ByVal number As Short ) As WString
Declare Function WOct( ByVal number As Short, ByVal digits As Integer ) As WString
Declare Function WOct( ByVal number As Integer ) As WString
Declare Function WOct( ByVal number As Integer, ByVal digits As Integer ) As WString
Declare Function WOct( ByVal number As LongInt ) As WString
Declare Function WOct( ByVal number As LongInt, ByVal digits As Integer ) As WString
result = WOct( number [, digits ] )
number
The Unicode octal representation of the number, truncated or padded with zeros ("0") to the specified number of digits, if specified.
Returns the octal WString (Unicode) representation of number. Octal digits range from 0 to 7.
If you specify digits > 0, the result string will be exactly that length. It will be truncated or padded with zeros on the left, if necessary.
The length of the returned string will not be longer than the maximum number of digits required for the type of number (3 characters for Byte, 6 for Short, 11 for Integer, and 22 for LongInt)
will produce the output:

result = WOct( number [, digits ] )
Parameters
number
Number to convert to octal representation.
digitsDesired number of digits in the returned string.
Return Value
The Unicode octal representation of the number, truncated or padded with zeros ("0") to the specified number of digits, if specified.
Description
Returns the octal WString (Unicode) representation of number. Octal digits range from 0 to 7.
If you specify digits > 0, the result string will be exactly that length. It will be truncated or padded with zeros on the left, if necessary.
The length of the returned string will not be longer than the maximum number of digits required for the type of number (3 characters for Byte, 6 for Short, 11 for Integer, and 22 for LongInt)
Example
Print WOct(54321)
Print WOct(54321, 4)
Print WOct(54321, 8)
Print WOct(54321, 4)
Print WOct(54321, 8)
will produce the output:
152061 2061 00152061
