Description
The LENC() function returns the length of specified double byte character expression <expC>. This function should be used when working with Unicode/UTF-8 characters. LEN() and STRLEN() are used with single byte character sets. The optional <expL> is ignored.
Example
nLength = lenc(cDBString)
