How to change string to expression? - John P - 12-22-2013 10:18 AM

How do I change string for ex. "x+2" to expression 'x+2' inside a program and again expression back to string.
Thanks.

Maybe EXPR(myStr) or CAS(myStr) or CAS("'"+myStr+"'") [depends on if and where you want it evaluated]. And back via STRING(...).

Thanks, CAS(myStr) works.
