How can I convert a textbox string into a number preferably single/lon 2

[JensKKK]

Fairly easy problem I guess.

Here is what I want to do. I want to read information from 4 text boxes (1 string and 3 numbers). If the user did not enter a number then I want to jump to the errorhandler.

What I have done so far is to convert the textbox.text into integer but really want it be single/long because I need numbers bigger than 32000.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Dim name, As String
Dim start, Number_of_Arrays, Increment, msg, number, replicate, max_arrays, i As Integer
On Error GoTo errorhandler
name = TextBox2.Text
start = Int(TextBox4.Text)
Number_of_Arrays = Int(TextBox3.Text)
Increment = Int(TextBox5.Text)

start=clng(TextBox4.text)

BTW "start" is not currently dimensioned as integer - it is a variant - as are all the variables on your second line except i. The "As Integer" phrase must follow each individual variable to declare them explicitly as integers, otherwise they take the default type, which is variant, (unless you have elsewhere used Defint).
