String expressions may be used as parameters of procedures and attributes, or as the source portion of an assignment statement when the destination is a string variable. String expressions may contain a single string or numeric variable, or a complex combination of sub-expressions, procedures, and operations.

Example:

StringVar   STRING(30)

Name        STRING(10)

Weight      STRING(3)

Phone       LONG
