<div>
You could use FormatNumber ( It will handle the decimals correctly that way )<br />
<br />
x = FormatNumber(&quot;$80.50&quot;, 2) ' the 2 stands for nums after digit<br />
MsgBox x
</div>

Hi:<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Given the following string :<br />

&quot;$80.00&quot;<br />

I need to add this string to a number. I have tried using the Val function but I get a zero because of the dollar sign. Is there another function or procedure that I could use to covert the string to a number?<br />

String to number

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
