<p>Unfortunately you misunderstood my needs.<br/>
I was looking for a Function like ANY_TO_STRING not DINT_TO_STRING.<br/>

<p>i looked for a function that converts the value of the any variable into a string. While i couldn't find a library or at least some documentations for this case, i written my own function.</p>
<p>Hints or improvements are welcome!</p></div>
