This is an appeal from a judgment entered on defendant’s plea of guilty to the crime of theft from the person, § 13-661, subsec. A A.R.S., and a sentence thereon of from nine to ten years.

We are asked to answer only one question on appeal and that is: Was there sufficient factual basis for the plea as required by Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238, 89 S.Ct. 1709, 23 L.Ed.2d 274 (1969).

The facts necessary for a determination of the matter on appeal are as follows. After a preliminary hearing, the defendant was held to answer the charge of armed robbery, § 13-641 A.R.S. On 11 January 1971, defendant withdrew a previous plea of not guilty and entered a plea of guilty to the amended information charging theft from the person. After hearings on 25 January 1971 and 4 February 1971, defendant was sentenced to serve nine to ten years in the Arizona State Prison. Defendant filed notice of appeal on 10 February 1971.

At the time the defendant changed his plea, the court questioned him briefly as to the factual basis of the plea:

“THE COURT: In Cause No. 64571 it ' is alleged that on or about August 28, 1970, in Maricopa County, State of Arizona, that you stole from the person of Dorothy Pitchford, personal property; to wit, money of the value of more than $100.00 in violation of A.R.S. Sections 13-661 and 663 as amended.
Do you understand that is the charge contained in this information?
“DEFENDANT: Yes, sir.”

At the time of the hearings, the trial court had before it the reporter’s transcript of the preliminary hearing which provided a complete factual background of the crime. The reporter’s transcript is a part of the record for the purposes of satisfying the “factual basis of the plea” requirements of Boykin, supra. See State v. Darling, 109 Ariz. 148, 506 P.2d 1042, filed this day.

We have reviewed the entire record as required by § 13-1715 A.R.S., State v. Burrell, 96 Ariz. 233, 393 P.2d 921 (1964) and Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). We find no fundamental error.

Judgment affirmed.
