Use the string parser to return a number?

Is there a way to tokenize a string but have it return the tokenized pieces as numbers not strings? I need to send the x and y coordinates of an object but I do not know how to get it to return a number.

EDIT: If it helps, I'm using Lacewing Ver. 18

It isn't working for some reason. I'm just setting a counter to an element of the string parser. Also, how do you select an element without using 'Get First Element' or Get Last Element'?

It is not Working for some reason. I have my events set up like this (this is a test application to get it to work before I implement it into my real application).

Start of Frame: *list tokenizer Set Source String to edittext$("edit box")

Start of Frame (the start of frames are combined) *list tokenizer Add Delimiter ","

Upon pressing Enter: (counter) Set Counter to val(listgetAt$("string parser",1))

I would like to be able to write in the edit box, let's say, 1,2,3, and have the second value (2) show up on the counter.

Thanks for the help so far

Thanks, but it still doesn't work. Any other suggestions?

yes. The idea is that I could type a string into the edit box (let's say, '0,1,2,3,4,5') and have the counter display, in this case, 1 using the string parser.

Tried that too, no good.
