I'm not sure what exactly your question is here? Also can you give more details about the id number itself and what your trying to accomplish? Is this a barcode?

One suggestion right off the top is to change this into a Function to return true if valid and false if not.

I am trying to validate A property method, of the 13 digits bar code!
