How do I convert from a string to an integer? Here's what I tried:
Price = CInt(Int(txtPrice.Text))
I took out the Int
and I still got an exception.
This question is related to
vb.net
Use
Convert.toInt32(txtPrice.Text)
This is assuming VB.NET.
Judging by the name "txtPrice", you really don't want an Integer but a Decimal. So instead use:
Convert.toDecimal(txtPrice.Text)
If this is the case, be sure whatever you assign this to is Decimal not an Integer.
Convert.ToIntXX doesn't like being passed strings of decimals.
To be safe use
Convert.ToInt32(Convert.ToDecimal(txtPrice.Text))
Please try this, VB.NET 2010:
Integer.TryParse(txtPrice.Text, decPrice)
decPrice = Convert.ToInt32(txtPrice.Text)

You can try it:
Dim Price As Integer
Int32.TryParse(txtPrice.Text, Price)
You can use the following to convert string to int:
For details refer to Type Conversion Functions (Visual Basic).
Use Val(txtPrice.text)
I would also allow only number and the dot char by inserting some validation code in the key press event of the price text box.
You can try these:
Dim valueStr as String = "10"
Dim valueIntConverted as Integer = CInt(valueStr)
Another example:
Dim newValueConverted as Integer = Val("100")
