Remarks

LEN(text_value)

Text_value is any text string or reference to a text value for which you want a character count. The number of characters, including all whitespace, determines the length of the text string.

Depending on the character encoding used, some whitespace characters such as line-breaks may count as two characters (one character is a carriage return, the other character is a line feed).

An empty text string contains no characters.
