Hello friends,

excuse me if my question is too simple , but I am relatively new to
Sybase.

Is there any function in Sybase SQL to check whether a value or a
string is numeric or not or Do I need to get each char in the string
and use ascii function? I checked the Sybase ASE Transact SQL User's
guide , but could not find it. (may be I didn't look good enough )

I intend to use it within a Stored Procedure , version of Sybase is
12.5

Thanks
