Deleting all text
I am trying to make something where you enter something and if there's any text in it, it gets deleted. I've been wondering, how do I do this? Thanks!

Why would you need this?

I'm tying to make something where I only want them to add text but if they add any numbers then I'll just take out the text to make it a number.

Re: Deleting all text
What are you storing the text in? A variable? A list?
Or are you just stamping the letters?

Re: Deleting all text
"mixed + 0" should strip off all the letters and leave 0-9 numbers...
EDIT
Never mind that only works with trailing letters. You'll have to manually run through all of the characters if you want to strip out letters.

Re: Deleting all text
Make each character an item on a list and run through each item checking if it is a number of not. If it is a number add it to a different list or "join" it with a variable.
