The equivalent when programming in Excel is the Cstr() function, so why not go ahead and build yourself a custom function in Monarch to do the same thing?

Now THAT is a great idea!
If you have colleagues who would also use it make it available in a central library model of custom functions and save everyone some time and effort. There is no point in everyone inventing their own wheel.
