Changing a character field to numeric
Posted: Sat Sep 04, 2010 4:21 pm
I am doing a custom report in CONTRIBUTIONS. Because of a site specific reason, I am using FAMILY PHONE 3 to contain price information (ex 100.00). In my CONTRIBUTIONS custom report I would like to subtract CONTRIBUTIONS AMOUNT from FAMILY PHONE 3. I cant do this because FAMILY PHONE 3 is a character field. Is there a way to convert this to a numeric field just for my subtraction process?
