Hi Drummerdog,

The precise nature of your concern is not clear from the title and content of your post. If you have general inquires about typing on an iPhone, see Type with the onscreen keyboard on iPhone for a general how-to on many of the functions of the iOS keypad.

To access numerical values, tapping the "123" key in the lower left will display a row of numbers and common symbols you can choose from.

If you need something else, supply additional details about the situation you're facing to increase the chances of a future reply being able to help.

Regards.
