In the source code, isNumeric() http://openoffice-vm1-he-de.apache.org/xref/trunk/main/basic/source/runtime/methods.cxx?r=710acb7f#2472 leads to ImpScan() http://openoffice-vm1-he-de.apache.org/xref/trunk/main/basic/source/sbx/sbxscan.cxx?r=323c3501#70 See the description given in lines 63-65 http://openoffice-vm1-he-de.apache.org/xref/trunk/main/basic/source/sbx/sbxscan.cxx?r=323c3501#63 and the code in line `153-154 http://openoffice-vm1-he-de.apache.org/xref/trunk/main/basic/source/sbx/sbxscan.cxx?r=323c3501#152 Best regards, Czesław Le jeu. 23 juin 2022 à 16:23, Dave <b...@apache.org> a écrit : > > > On 23/06/2022 14:26, Lucien Mathay wrote: > > > > Le 23/06/22 à 14:53, Dave a écrit : > >> Try =ISNUMBER("123D456") instead of =ISNUMERIC("123D456") > > Thank you and sorry, Dave, I forgot to specify that the question was > > related to Basic.
