[edit] String Operator
[edit] String concatenation
The "&" operator joins two strings together. Example:
Dim String1 As String = "123" Dim String2 As String = "456" Dim String3 As String String3 = String1 & String2 ' Results in "123456".
This will result in String3 being equal to "123456"
The "+" operator may be used in place of "&". However, it is not recommended.
