Syntax - If IsAllAlphaNumeric <string expression> … Where: <string expression> is a literal string or a variable containing a literal string.
Description: This comparison operator is used to scan a literal string or a variable that contains a string value to insure that every character in the string is a numerical digit. This comparison returns a TRUE condition if all characters in the string are numerical digits (no spaces, symbols, or punctuation). This comparison operator can be used with either an in-line If (the original OLIE™ syntax) or a Block If.
