\*\*Hello, All!

\*\* I’m interested in creating number/telephone keypad, but I can get multiple numbers to append to each other. I creating a simple little app where the user “punches in” an amount from an on-screen number keypad. When the user presses 5-0-0, I’d like it to set the variable to “500”.

The only method I’v tried (or know how to do) is:  
on(press){set(“varNumber1”,1)} - But this only allows me one number at a time.

Is there any exisiting code out there - or could someone show me how to append the numbers to each other.

Thank you.
