Hallo Iris,
I have to find out if a character variable inside is alphanumeric or numeric.
VAL returns the info You are looking for
Msgalert( VAL( "aaa" ) ) = 0
Msgalert( VAL( "111" ) ) = 111
best regards

Hello Uwe,
thank you for your answer.
I have tried with VAL, but this is not the solution.
local cNumber = "1S2673Z"
msginfo(VAL(cNumber)) = 1
I think VAL evaluates cNumber until the first non-numeric character.
Thank you and kind regards
Iris

cVar:="a5b"
posrange(chr(48), chr(57), cVar) - 2
