    Use & for concatenation, NOT +.

    I assume Reboot_Timer is some numeric value...

    vb.net Code:
    1. Label1.Text = "The system will reboot in " & Reboot_Timer.toString & " seconds, to finalize any settings..." & Environment.NewLine & Environment.NewLine & "Please standby!"

    & Reboot_Timer.toString
    Actually if you use the correct operator, &, then the conversion is inferred and the explicit conversion is unnecessary, so the error wouldn't ever have arisen.
    As the 6-dimensional mathematics professor said to the brain surgeon, "It ain't Rocket Science!"
