Len(str) will you the length of a string (number of characters)...
Mid(str,N,1) returns the Nth character in a string...
str = "testword"
wscript.echo len(str) '==> 8
wscript.echo mid(str,3,1) '==> s
wscript.echo string(20,"=")
for n = 1 to len(str)
wscript.echo mid(str,n,1)
next
wscript.echo string(20,"=")
