Will, I stand corrected on that one. So far in 20 odd years of programming
in MV I haven't needed to worry about it.


Neither have I .

Now Will raises a terrific question. If A = "1" assigns 1 as numeric. How
would you determine if A contained a numeric or a string in this case?


Piece of cake . Write a program with the statements in it and step through it in the
debugger. Result shows clearly that
A = 1
now A is reported as INTEGER 1
A = "1"
now A ir reported as: T r L=1 '1'


(  it looked as if the cut and paste had worked but when the mail
came back the string answer was gone - som  much for WYSIWYG  mailers )

( used uv10.0.1 for teh test)
