But...

Posted by Hiran on January 24, 2002 at 3:39 PM

But don't all read methods return the value as a string? Also, could you not just check to see if the value is numerical or not?If you still need help, maybe you could provide some sample code, or a specific example (ie, what exactly do you want to do), so that we can get a clearer picture. Thanks
