I saw that, I didn't understand, that's why I post here.

Wouldn't that be this...

(LM:parsenumbers "your string here")

As per the example RKM pointed you to at Lee Mac's website which was (LM:parsenumbers "1a-2.3b4c56").

Well, I can't explain it any more than this.

(LM:parsenumbers "1a-2.3b4c56")

The first part is the function name LM:parsenumbers

The second part is the arguments you are passing to the function "1a-2.3b4c56"

Here is an example my layout name is "Layout 22" in this code its assigned to variable tabname so (setq dwgnum (Lm:parsenumbers tabname)) returns dwgnum as 22. The bit you where probbaly missing was the assigning to a variable the answer.

rkmcswain example in the prior post as shown would return, dwgnum = 123456

rkmcswain example in the prior post as shown would return, dwgnum = 123456

Actually it returns this:

My guess is that the OP wants to update text entities with recalculated numerical portions. But he is not very clear in this and his other request.

Rules for starting threads:

1. No mind readers here, take at least 2 minutes to explain what you want someone else to spend half an hour coding for you. Most of the time that code or one similar has already been written.

2. If you're asking about something you found online post the link, not the code.

Thanks Rkmcswain I only use it for single text checking should have looked closer.
