' VBScript has a String() function that can repeat a character a given number of times ' but this only works with single characters (or the 1st char of a string): WScript.Echo String(10, "123") ' Displays "1111111111" ' To repeat a string of chars, you can use either of the following "hacks"... WScript.Echo Replace(Space(10), " ", "Ha") WScript.Echo Replace(String(10, "X"), "X", "Ha")
