First, this REGEX pattern seems to work for me: ^[-+]?\d+(\.\d+)?$ -- I can use Google.
But now I'd like to know why my alternative method doesn't work:

Error Handling and Number Recognition
I'm parsing through data, and I need to be able to identify numbers. I'm not real good with RegEx, so I thought I'd try something different and easy.

Re: Error Handling and Number Recognition
123.avc is not a number, so trying to add 1 to it will cause an error.

Hi Marcus,
The question was more directed at why the IGNOREERRORS didn't work. I should have been clearer.

Oh. Will look at that. It certainly should do. If ignorerrors is not preventing it that must be a bug.

Re: Error Handling and Number Recognition
Just to let you know that we now have this fixed in dev for the next update. The error was not being trapped by the regular error handler. That's now been fixed for the next release so that you can suppress/trap the error in the way you were expecting.
