TurboPower had many of these (str2byte, str2long, str2real, etc.) in their tpstring unit. I think one that can cater for all numeric types would be very useful.
{ converts a string by using current locale to a numeric value Example using de_DE locale: if String2NumLocale ('1,50', MyMoney) then ... True on success } function String2NumLocale (const s: String; var n: <numeric type>): Boolean;
