I'd tried selecting
WHERE Age > 0
AND Age < 99

But this still gave me things like '50+'

You could try selecting where Age is greater than 0 .. That should give
you a number (in theory not tried it)

The RegExp one will work too (but can be a little 'expensive' if you are
doing a lot of queries.

e.g.
SELECT * FROM Ages WHERE Age 0 > 0;

Subject: [ cf-dev ] MySQL Select Numeric

Any way in MySQL to select rows where a value is or can be converted to
a number?

sort of like:

SELECT Age
FROM Ages
WHERE IsNumeric(Age)

My best workaround so far seems to be just do the select as normal, then
loop through the list, removing rows where "NOT IsNumeric(query.Age)".
