tonumber (x) 1

[JeroenVV]

Crystal reports 9

I have a byte data type field on my report. I would like to convert this field to a numeric field.

The tonumber (x) string function does not give me an error, but there is no result. Although, when I place the byte field on my report, I see data.

Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance

Kind regards

Jeroen

If my memory doesn't fail me, a byte data type is a number from 0 to 255.

If you want the character representation of the Byte Data value perhaps this is how it is done

chr({table.ByteDataField})
