>How about using Val()

tried posting this via mail but no joy... here's hoping this works:

Hello Michael,

Val("NaN") and Val(mynumber) (where mynumber="NaN") both
return 0, as per spec. That would have worked for me, but only
because i never check against negative values. Unfortunately (wouldn't
you know it) i have a different piece of code which says:

       <cfif (not(isNumeric(myField)) or (myField lt ListGetAt(rule,2,":")))>

Meanwhile, i've tried with CF5 (slightly different code as it
doesn't understand #("NaN" gt 5)#) and found that CF5 also thinks
"NaN" is a number, although at least it is consistent: 
<cfif ("NaN" gt 5)>YES<cfelse>NO</cfif> 
and 
<cfif (myNumber gt 5)>YES<cfelse>NO</cfif> 
both return NO (no conversion problems).

Is this a known issue with CF? Would anybody from MM care to comment?

/t

ps: if anyone needs me, i'll be ordering NaN products from CF powered sites ;)
