How can I test if a given string contains a valid number?   

    Use one of the string to number function inside a try except block, and test for an exception. Example:

    function IsStrANumber(NumStr : string) : bool;
    begin
      result := true;
      try
        StrToInt(NumStr);
      except
        result := false;
      end;
    end;

    procedure TForm .Button Click(Sender: TObject); begin if IsStrANumber(Edit .Text) then ShowMessage(Edit .Text) else ShowMessage('Not a Number'); end;
