need some help with baseConvert()
Hello, I am using: put baseConvert(number,32,10) into tResult where number can be numeric or alpha input by the user. When number is AB the result is 331, ok. But when number is e.g. QW I get an error baseConvert can't convert this number I would like to check the user input for valid values which can be converted by the function, before I pass it to the baseConvert(), and the function throws this error to the user. What is the valid range for this baseConvert? Any help appreciated.

Re: need some help with baseConvert()
LC is using base32Hex. That means valid chars are 0-9 and A-V.
