Report SetData doubts

Hi all,
I have doubts (or questions) about standard SetData function.
And additional question: Why just chr(177) ?
Thanks for replies
I have doubts (or questions) about standard SetData function.
Public Function SetData(NewData as Object,Group as integer)
If Group = 1 and NewData > "" Then
Data1 = NewData
End If
...
Which sense have comparison of NewData against empty string ? I think, mostly this parameter contains concatenation of several strings (fields) separated with chr(177) and so it is unlikely to be empty.And additional question: Why just chr(177) ?
Thanks for replies

Text ASCII
± chr(177)
It's converted to this simbol, don't know the real reason but I can assume it was one of the few CHR that wouldn't be used in the values passed when you are creating your setdata string.
