Re: How to check for string as alpha or numeric??

I would look into the Regex class and regular expressions. You can use
Regex to check the string against any pattern you like, "all digits"
being one possible pattern, which would look like this:

if (Regex.IsMatch(myString, @"^\d+$")) ...

which will match a string containing one or more digits and nothing
else.
