GePPP‖Return value:

mA9x6‖String

WADQ4‖Parameters:

nK2mM‖ charcode: Numeric expression that represent a valid 16 bit Unicode value (0-65535). (To support expressions with a nominally negative argument like ChrW(&H8000) in a backwards-compatible way, values in the range −32768 to −1 are internally mapped to the range 32768 to 65535.) An empty value returns error code 5. A value out of the range [0 to 65535] returns error code 6.

SEjHR‖Error codes:

5 Invalid procedure call

6 Overflow
