Try this Replace( string, "$", "" , "All"). That should take care of any
problem you had. String being the name of your field name of course.

Subject: Val() doesn't work like I need it to
Val("$12.31") returns 0. Val("1,120.1") returns 1.. This is starting to
piss me off. Am I missing something here? Am I going to have to write
a custom tag to simply convert a human-readable number into a number-
number for insertion into an Oracle column? (Oracle's to_number() is
just as useless, if not more so! urg.)
TIA,
