    Thumbs up letter to number

    Hi all

    I have a program that is working fine apart from one issues and that is if someone hits a letter.

    If they hit a number out of the menu range it tells them invalid entry but if the use anything else it crashes, is there a way I can make every letter that is type in error become a number i.e 0

    someone said ascii but cant figure it out.

    Thanks in advance

    You could perhaps use Character.isDigit() before you try to turn it into a number.
