Matthew Jones	What's the fastest way to check for valid characters? EWB doesn't support "in", so I can't do "if char in ['0'..'9','.']" in a loop. I could do a Pos, but for some reason that seems slower. Is it? Any other options? -- Matthew Jones

I could do a Pos, but for some reason that seems slower. Is it? Any other options? That's a good idea. Thanks. In this particular instance I think I will keep Pos, but knowing RegEx is available will help for more complex or where speed is needed. -- Matthew Jones
