Converts the numeric value of a string to an integer value and returns the result.
Category
String
Syntax
IntegerResult = StringToIntg( Text );
Parameter
Text
String that function acts on. Actual string or a string attribute.
Remarks
When this statement is evaluated, the system reads the first character of the string for a numeric value. If the first character is other than a number, the string's value is equated to zero (0). Blank spaces are ignored. If the first character is a number, the system continues to read the subsequent characters until a non-numeric value is detected.
Examples
StringToIntg("ABCD"); ' returns 0;
StringToIntg("22.2 is the Value"); ' returns 22 (since integers are whole numbers);
StringToIntg("The Value is 22"); ' returns 0;
