Logical test if first character of a string is a number

[jmg80525]

Need to check if the first character of a string is number. Trying

Value.Is(Value.FromText(Text.Start([DESC.1],1)), type {number})

Everything comes back as false.

Value.FromText help indicates it decodes the value returned and applies appropriate type, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Any ideas?

Hi jmg80525,
Try this one
(try Number.From(Text.Start([DESC.1],1)) otherwise [DESC.1]) is number
