Hi there, I'm not sure if this belongs in the newsgroup, but here
goes anyway.

(setq num 18)

I need to convert the value in num, "18", to a string.
"num" is a counter in a loop, so I need its value converted.


Just a simple question from a simple person.

Thanks,

		LARS

(princ-to-string num)
-> "18"
