Subject: Re: convert string of numbers to numeric?
Thanks for all of your help. To help out a little more, here're my queries:
<cfif #NullID.name# eq "">
<cfquery name="insertData"
datasource="source"
dbtype="ODBC">
INSERT INTO tblTable (name, var1) VALUES ('#userName.name#', '#val ("0" & form.var1)#')
</cfquery>
</cfif>
<cfif #NullID.name# IS #userName.name#>
<cfquery name="updateData"
datasource="source"
dbtype="ODBC">UPDATE tblTable SET var1=#val ("0" & form.var1)# WHERE name = '#userName.name#'</cfquery>
</cfif>

>>can you send the whole bit of code?
Well, i don't where is the rest of the code, I just answered the problem "The value """" cannot be converted to a number."
Adding "0" at the begining of the string will assure that the string is always transformable to a number through the val() function.
Then if you are in a query,
UPDATE myTable
SET whatever = #val ("0" & form.var1)#
