A stupid question

[Cndn]

Text3.text = text2.text + text1.text

If text2 is equal to 2, and text1 is equal to 1, then
text3 will equal 21.

Isn't it possible to have the code simply add text2's text (2) and text1's text (1) to equal 3?

How do you make it so that vb adds the values instead of sticking them together?

cast them to ints or longs

text3.text = clng(text2.text) + clng(text1.text)

this will cause an error if either of the values are not numbers so check first before casting

if isnumeric(text2.text) and isnumeric(text1.text) then
text3.text = clng(text2.text) + clng(text1.text)
end if
