Converts a value to Text. If an array is passed in, its values will be concatenated to form one string. To preserve the original array structure, use touniformstring.
tostring( value )
value: (Any Type) Value to convert.
Text
Arguments after the first are ignored.
Values that hold a Number (Decimal) data type are displayed using 7 digits of precision, when cast to a string of plain text.
This function returns a null Text when passed a null value.
Do not use apply with tostring; use touniformstring() instead.
You can experiment with this function in the test box below.
Test Input
tostring(17) returns "17"
tostring({1,2,3}) returns "1, 2, 3" (note that this is a single Text, not an Array of Text)
touniformstring(): Use this function to preserve Arrays.
