Hi i searched the forum but couldnt find an answer. How can i convert a text from a list to a number?
if the text is already numerals then just add 0 to it or multiply it by 1

Right. And to convert a number to text, you can join it with an empty string ("").
@overturner If you’re needing to convert a list to a number… can you explain that? Do you actually mean a list variable/value? Or do you just mean a text string? Can you give an example?

You need to use a loop and add the individual entries by adding 0 and then add it to the running sum.
