You can then check against a number here instead of checking the ASCII value of the number. As in,  check ButtonOne as: ToNumber([InputKey])=1 Thanks, Isha Singh Sun, 04 Mar 2018 15:16:00 GMT IshaSingh 2018-03-04T15:16:00Z https://community.blueprism.com/t5/Product-Forum/Choice-stage-not-working-fine-when-input-condition-to-be-checked/m-p/48144#M3736 When I run the flow, it is always taking me to "Otherwise" part if the variable is of text data type. However, if my input variable is of Number data type, it just works fine by going to the appropriate branch. Please help me sort out the issue.

But would like to know why this has to be done. Does choice option not work with text datatype? 2. The reason why i opted to go for text data type is that my input will contain non-numerics like ""+"", ""-"" etc. Please assist!
