LEN Function Details
 
Syntax
  LEN(stringexpression)
  LEN(variable)
 
In the first form, LEN returns the number of characters in the argument
stringexpression. The second syntax returns the number of bytes required by
a BASIC variable. This syntax is particularly useful for determining the
correct record size of a random-access file.
