Calculation string... in a string

[Krass]

I got "2 + 2" in a string variable.

I would like to know if it's possible to actually execute/calculate that STRING to obtain the result of "4".

I don't feel like parsing/messing with the string, unless I have no choice.

Thank you!

You can use the Eval Method for that.

'project >> references >> microsoft script control 1.0

Dim msc As New MSScriptControl.ScriptControl
Dim Str1 As String

Str1 = "2 + 2"

msc.Language = "vbscript"

MsgBox msc.Eval(Str1)
