Why do you mention Chr() at all? Are you translating code from VB6 or something? (char)7 means, exactly: convert an integer value, modulo 65536, as a UTF-16 code unit to the natural data type used for UTF-16 code units (char). (A string is a counted sequence of UTF-16 code units.)

| May 2, 2016 at 7:48 | comment | added | ib11 | The difference is the real time compiling errors VS 2013 gives. It only reports the error when I build. | |
| May 2, 2016 at 7:40 | comment | added | yaakov | "did not give a compiler error, only at build time" What's the difference between the compiler and build time? | |

According to MSDN, Chr returns a Char. Is it possible that VB just has an implicit cast from Char to String?

A line of code did not give a compiler error, only at build time, which made me to start looking for the answer. The line of code was: if (oWordDoc.ActiveWindow.Selection.Text.EndsWith((char)7) And when I looked many posts stated what I have in my OP. This is what I want to clarify and make sure I have it right: that one always have to cast to string if he wants to use it as string.
