Hi,

While running the crystal report, for some values there is a "String is non-numeric"exception.
I have tried the code -

SQL

If IsNull({GL_PayableStatement.RemainingBalance}) OR {GL_PayableStatement.RemainingBalance}="" OR {GL_PayableStatement.RemainingBalance}="0"
then
0
ELse
ToNumber( {GL_PayableStatement.RemainingBalance})

But still the error is there!

Please help me.

What's the value you're passing?

VB

Add one more OR condition to check the value is numeric or not.
If IsNull ({GL_PayableStatement.RemainingBalance}) OR {GL_PayableStatement.RemainingBalance}="" OR {GL_PayableStatement.RemainingBalance}="0" OR Not(IsNumeric({GL_PayableStatement.RemainingBalance}))
 Then
 0
Else
 ToNumber ({GL_PayableStatement.RemainingBalance})
