Loading a Global Value to Edit Object

[KingToast]

Hello, everyone.

My question is extraordinarily basic; I didn't find any similar posts in the search, so here it goes:

I need to simply recall a global value into an edit box. The global value is created by using numbers in a set of 4 edit boxes like a simple little math formula BOX1 + BOX2 + BOX3 - BOX4. That all works perfectly fine creating the global value. However, I must then recall that global value in the next frame in a separate Edit Box so that it may be used in a different context.

It seems that the only function an edit box can serve is obtaining text, rather than numbers that exist outside of a String form. Is there a good old-fashioned work around, or an extension that derives a string from numerical value?

Ah! I have answered my own question. So, in the event that anyone else has this question, here is the answer:

After selecting "Retrieve data from object," under the "Special" category, there is a "Conversions" heading. One can convert numbers to strings and vice versa. Cool beans.
