Convert text wave into numeric wave and vice versa

 
// Handy Function to convert numeric waves into text waves
Function ConvertNumWvToTxtWv(W)
Wave W
Variable np = numpnts(W)
Make /T /O /N=(np) TxtConvert
Variable x
for(x=0;x<np;x+=1)
    TxtConvert[x] = num2str(W[x])
endfor
End

How about using a wave assignment instead of a loop?
Function ConvertNumWvToTxtWv(W)
Wave W
 
Make /T /O /N=(numpnts(W)) TxtConvert
TxtConvert[] = num2str(W[p])
endfor
End
 
Function ConvertTxtWvToNumWv(W)
Wave /T W
 
Make /O /N=(numpnts(W)) NumConvert
NumConvert[] = str2num(W[p])
End
