Exactly what kind of string are you using?
If it's a .NET string, use the ToString() method.
If it's a CString, you can probably use the FormatString() method.
If it's an STL string, use a stringstream.

it is .NET - i have tried the ToString() , and it has not worked - show me an example how u use it i have tried both ways with no success
x->ToString() or x->ToString(x) - if u use it like the first way it should pop up in the box right after u put the arrow in - nothing pops up - please help - explain how to use format string please

i think it is a System String

Is x a double or a System.Double...?
I'm still reading a book on C# & .NET, so I might not be the best person to ask about .NET questions.

Try something like this:

System.String str = x.ToString();  // or -> if x is a pointer.

Put a breakpoint on the next line and run it in the debugger. See if str is set to the string value of x. If it is, set your textbox to str.

BTW, what type of object is your textbox?
What code are you using to set your textbox to x?
