OK, but the strings can also be used to introduce any kind of text
information. For instance, "To be or not to be, that is the question" ->
Hamlet

If you just want to introduce that text into the calculator, it would be
fine. But if you want to introduce a more long text then it is not so easy,
since you have not a QWERTY keyboard and so on.

I also tried to create a String variable using the TI-Graph link, but I
didn't know how to do it.

If I would be able to create my own .85s files using a little Word-macro or
a simple software (programed in vC, vB or whatever) it would be cool. But I
need to understand the .85s format.

In a few words, what I want to do is to create a .85s file and then transmit
it using the TI-Graph Link. Any body knows how can I do it?

Sorry about my bad english, it is not my first language.

Bye,
