Yes, it does.
You might be able to get away with making it
totext(tonumber({ExhObjXRefs.CaseNumber}));

Doesn't "tonumber" return a numeric value instead of a string?

Subject: tonumber trouble
Hello,
Hoping one of you crystal gurus out there knows what I'm doing wrong. I keep
getting the error "a string is required here" when I try to turn the string
casenumber into a number so it will sort correctly.
SELECT{?group}
CASE 'LENDER' :{Constituents.AlphaSort}
CASE 'SECTION':{ExhObjXRefs.Section}
CASE'CHECK#': tonumber({ExhObjXRefs.CaseNumber});
Thanks in advance for any help!
