I have done this with text fields by setting up a calculation
Length(variableofinterest) then just searching for the records for
which this calculation returns the number of characters I am seeking.
I would think it would work with a number field though it would count
the decimal in numbers with a decimal point as a character too.

Dear List: is there any way to do a direct, non-script search for
all records that have x digits in a contained number (so that it
returns, for example, only fields with 6 digits, and not 5 or less
or 7 or more)? Thanks. Dan Janzen, University of Pennsylvania
