Currency and percentage in numeric evaluation

[SimPLsol at aol.com]

Richard,
You could add zero to it and see if you get an error.
Since currency signs are usually the first of last character, you could strip 
the first or last character after using the zero test above, then test for 
zero again.
Or make a list of all major currencies and see if the first or last character 
of the string is in the list (the currency list will probably be shorter than 
you expect).
