> Has this changed from VfP 5 - parameter to TYPE had to be a character expression, ie. TYPE( "mynumber" ) ?
In VFP 6.0, there's VARTYPE() which takes the variable, and TYPE() which takes a character expression of a variable.
I'm not entirely sure, however, if this is exactly what the question pertains to. If you're trying to determine if a string character is a number or something else, there' ISDIGIT()
