Mazahir, if you just want to extract the numerics from a string then you can use:

cOrgText = "ret..369"
cNewText = CHRTRAN( cOrgText, CHRTRAN( cOrgText,"0123456789", ""), "" )
? cNewText                && Returns 369 as string
? VAL( cNewText )         && Returns 369.00 as numeric
? INT( VAL( cNewText ) )  && Returns 369 as numeric integer
? LEN( cNewText )         && Returns length 3
