As the user for a string, then use strintok and strint to either convert it to an int or prompt the user to enter a new value. |

Try posting your code that you've created so far. It will be easier for people to help you out. |

I'm not sure what else to tell you. The link to documentation has been posted; and it's been said how it could be applied.
Perhaps you can experiment with different values, to see how the function behaves. |

if strintok (string var) = true then
%%THIS IS AN INT VALUE
else %%ITS FALSE
%%THIS MEANS ITS GOT STRINGS IN IT!
end if
str int ok --string TO INT OK(GOOD?) YES/NO (booleans)
now you know how to use it. |
