Yeah, CHRTRAN() is cool.

You can use it for lots of one line string functions like

* Clean the dashes, slashes and parens out of a phone number

lcPHoneNumber = "(512)/255-1234"

lcPhoneNumber = CHRTRAN(lcPhoneNumber, "()/-","")

?lcPhoneNumber = 5122551234

or

* Determine if a string of characters contains any numeric characters

?lcNumber = STRTRAN(lcNumber,"1234567890","")
