>Hi all,
> I'm looking for a relatively easy way to identify if a character field contains only numbers. My application is testing for valid/real postal addresses and one of the checks I'd like to make is if the field contains nothing but numerical data. Can anyone point the way?

1. You can use
ISDIGIT()
function to check each character in the character field.

2. You can conver value in the character field to a number than back to character and compeare with source
ALLTRIM(STR(VAL(Myfield))) == ALLTRIM(Myfield)
