LS - Field Names

I inherited a datebase where some of the field names are labeled Name$ (which are number fields).

I’m trying to write some script to add up the value of the field. When writing LotusScript it’s converting the value to string because of the “$” sign for the field name and I’m getting an error when adding.

Is there a work around on this?

Does this help?

dim item as notesitem

set item = doc.GetFirstItem ( “name$” )

fv = item.values

Look into using the Csng, Cint, Cdbl, or Clng functions. You can convert your strings to a number using those.
