Sting to Int from Array

[albo]

Hi i'm stuck on something so easy, i've googled, tired various methods but cant get it to work. Imagine if you can, i have an array (set as a string type) but the second slot holds a numebr that i want, e.g. 2333.

So to grab it i use the following code, however as my sport array is set to a string it wont allow it. Like i said i have tried a few ways but nothing works. Such a stupid and simple situation. I'm much much better with actionscript surely its just a string to int conversion?

Dim myNumber As Integer = sport(1)
