Hi All,
I am trying to create a function that will test if a given text value
may safely be cast to numeric, returning the numeric cast or null if
impossible.
Is there a way to "catch" the "ERROR: Bad numeric input format" error?
I ask that rather than about what the numeric format is for regex-style
testing because if this works I may want to use a similar method to
check if a given text value casts safely to other types, like date.
Best,
Randall
