You can't - an int16 can only store numbers from -32768 and 32767

That should have said:<br />
an int16 can only store numbers from -32768 to 32767<br />
<br />
It's just not possible to store numbers greater than 32767 in an int16

Are you saying there is no way to convert from an int32 with value 65529 to an int16 whose value should be -7<br />

Hello EE,<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp;I need to convert an int32 to an int16. If I use the System.Convert.ToInt16(myI<wbr />nt32) I get an overflow exception for numbers over 32767. Does anyone know how to convert from an int32 which is less than 65,535 into an int16?<br />

Convert int32 to int16

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
