    Question *SOLVED* Overflow when dividing

    ok...
    im making a paint program, and when the user is going to draw a straight line, he has to do as in mspaint: hold down shift....
    the problem is when the program is going to calculate the M value and the K value of the line...

    here's a bit of the code:

    If Shift = 1 Then
    KValue = (Y - StartY) / (X - StartX)
    MValue = Y - X * KValue
    End If

    but it cant do the division!! it gives me the overflow error!
    why?
