_TITLE and extended ASCII characters.

[SMcNeill]

Strange. It doesn't print the three horizontal marks in the title bar, only 2. More like an equals sign instead of CHR$(240).

What is also weird is it didn't work with another method using MID$() to extract the "a"...   It beeps, so the two strings, title1$ and title2$, are the same, but only the later one creates a title.

That's why I mentioned, "all that effort just to get "=Foo" as the title."  I don't know if it's some windows specific replacement routine going on with the title, or what the heck it is, but the triple line ends up only becoming a double line.  IF anyone else has any ideas over what's wrong here, I'd love to hear them, as it seems to me that it should be working as written.  

I've also noticed the glitch with not building the string character by character.  You can't RIGHT$ + LEFT$ to reverse the letters, and make it work either.   ANd, let you tested, one string is equal to the other string, but windows works with one and not the other...  Now, explain that to me!  ???

Maybe you should just go with "|||Foo" and tell people your bars toppled over sideways in the wind.
