how do i make mt textbox display a percentage of a text value?

say i have a database (flexgrid) i want a text box to display a 75% of a col value, a numeric value.

example code.

msflexgrid1.col = 2
text1.text = MSFlexGrid1.TextMatrix(MSFlexGrid1.Row, 2)

Ok that puts up the current number value of col 2 and selected row into the textbox.

but how do i make it only 75% of that value. i tried:

msflexgrid1.col = 2
text1.text = 75% of (MSFlexGrid1.TextMatrix(MSFlexGrid1.Row, 2))

but it didn't work.

Please help me.
