URGENT : String to Int conversion

Hi All

I have a string with me. like "12345". This I want to convert to absolute int value of it i.e. 12345 as int.

How can I do the same ?
pls advice asap

Thanks in advance,
Nahush

use function "cint()"

VB Code:

Dim myInt as Integer
myInt = CInt("12345")

CInt converts to Integer datatype, the maximum value is 32767. If you need a longer range, use Long datatype instead (CLng). It'll allow numbers up to 2 147 483 647.

Note that you will get an error if you try to pass a string that doesn't contain numbers or that contains something else than numbers. If you want more "freedom", use Val() to first convert to a number and then CLng() to convert to Long datatype.

VB Code:

Dim lngTest As Long
    lngTest = CLng(Val(Text1.Text))
