This function returns True if the specified data is in digits and returns False if it is not in digits.

Introduction

This is simple function (written in VB.Net) which tells whether the given string is in digits or not.

Description

To check this I will simply make two functions:
1- Page_Load(Sender As Object, E As EventArgs)
2- Check_For_Numeric_Format(C_S)

We will declare one variable in Page_Load e.g., "Var_String", assign it the value and then call the function "Check_For_Numeric_Format(Var_String)". The code is given below:

Source Code

Sub Page_Load(Sender As Object, E As EventArgs)<BR>   If Not Page.IsPostBack Then<BR>    Dim Var_String<BR>    Var_String = "1234567890"<BR>    If Check_For_Numeric_Format(Var_String) = True Then<BR>     Response.Write("Congratulations! The string is in digits.")<BR>    Else<BR>     Response.Write("Sorry! The string is not in digits.")<BR>    End If<BR>   End If<BR>End Sub<BR><BR>Function Check_For_Numeric_Format(C_S)<BR>   Dim Var_Loop, Var_Len<BR>   If C_S = "" Then<BR>    Return False<BR>   End If<BR>   Var_Len = Len(C_S)<BR>   C_S = LCase(C_S)<BR>   For Var_Loop = 1 To Var_Len<BR>    If Mid(C_S, Var_Loop, 1) < Chr(48) Or Mid(C_S, Var_Loop, 1) > Chr(57) Then<BR>     Return False<BR>    End If<BR>   Next<BR>   Return True<BR>End Function
