Changing a Word into an array of Strings

Harry1

So right now i have variable. which is a Word, and i wish to change it into an array of Strings in a way shown below

START

Word car := "car"

END

str[noparse][[/noparse]0] := "c"
str[noparse][[/noparse]1] := "a"
str[noparse][[/noparse]2] := "r"

Is this even possible, and if so how would i go about doing this. Any help will appreciated
Thanks ^^

Harry1,

I'm not sure exactly what you are wanting to do. When you define a string it essentially is already stored as an array. You can use the byte modifier
to read or change individual characters.

[b]CON[/b]
  [b]_clkmode[/b] = [b]xtal[/b]1 + [b]pll[/b]16x
  [b]_xinfreq[/b] = 5_000_000

[b]OBJ[/b]
  text : "vga_text"

[b]VAR[/b]
  [b]byte[/b] [b]str[/b][noparse][[/noparse]3]

[b]PUB[/b] start
    [b]str[/b] := [b]string[/b]("car")                                'define 'str' variable

    text.start(16)                                       'Start VGA adapter
    text.out(0)

    text.out([b]byte[/b][noparse][[/noparse][b]str[/b]+0])                               'Display 'c'
    text.out(13)                                        
    
    text.out([b]byte[/b][noparse][[/noparse][b]str[/b]+1])                               'Display 'a'
    text.out(13)
        
    text.out([b]byte[/b][noparse][[/noparse][b]str[/b]+2])                               'Display 'r'
    text.out(13)

    [b]byte[/b][noparse][[/noparse][b]str[/b]+2] := "t"                                  'Change  'r' to a 't'
    text.out(13)

    text.out([b]byte[/b][noparse][[/noparse][b]str[/b]+0])                               'Display 'c'
    text.out(13)
    
    text.out([b]byte[/b][noparse][[/noparse][b]str[/b]+1])                               'Display 'a'
    text.out(13)
        
    text.out([b]byte[/b][noparse][[/noparse][b]str[/b]+2])                               'Display 't'
    text.out(13)

    [b]repeat[/b]
