 SADD(stringvariable$)
 
 Usage Notes
   ■ Use the SADD function with care because strings can move in the Visual
     Basic string space (storage area) at any time.
 
   ■ In a non-Basic routine, do not add characters to the beginning or end of
     a string passed using the SADD and LEN functions. Adding characters may
     cause Visual Basic to generate a run-time error. See: LEN Function
 
   ■ SADD can be used with far strings; however, to obtain the segment
     address of a far string, use the SSEG function. See: SSEG Function
 
   ■ In earlier versions of Basic, SADD was used only for near strings.
     Visual Basic does not support the use of near strings.
