    Thanks for the reply as you say i tried by using evaluate  but it returns zero.

    Code := '*oh06es/\@wa08=-hed95';

    in here i need to return interger(numeric value) only. I tried the Delchar function, it's working but in the where parameter i need to give manually is there is any way to give the alphabet shortly 'A..Z' is not working

    Code := DELCHR(Code,'=','ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ|!|@|#|$|%|<|>|*|/|\|?|=|-');

    Hello,

    I like functions like DELCHR better where possible, as they can do the hard work for you. But if nothing else works, you can scan the string char by char and keep the chars that you want. A string is an array of characters, so this is what you can do:

    OBJECT Codeunit 99996 Make Number

    {

     OBJECT-PROPERTIES

     {

       Date=20/10/21;

       Time=16:56:52;

       Modified=Yes;

       Version List=;

     }

     PROPERTIES

     {

       OnRun=BEGIN

               Code := '*oh06es/\@wa08=-hed95';

               FOR i := 1 TO STRLEN(Code) DO BEGIN

                 Char := Code[i];

                 IF EVALUATE(TestNumber,FORMAT(Char)) THEN

                   ResultTxt := ResultTxt + FORMAT(Char);

               END;

               EVALUATE(ResultNumber,ResultTxt);

               MESSAGE(FORMAT(ResultNumber));

             END;

     }

     CODE

     {

       VAR

         Code@1000 : Code[10];

         Char@1001 : Char;

         TestNumber@1005 : Integer;

         i@1002 : Integer;

         ResultTxt@1003 : Text;

         ResultNumber@1004 : Integer;

       BEGIN

       END.

     }

    }
