VB.net convert numeric text into number

That's because the "," is the decimal separator and that way it only gets the one. Integer values doesn't allaw to use decimal values.

Ok , I thought that Val converts to a double

See below, you can't use integer for this, integers are full numbers only (no decimal place), you can use double for what you want.

Dim Z as string = "1,234.56"
 
' Now remove the comma from the string
Dim Z2 as string = z.replace(",", "")
 
'store as double
Dim x as double = Z2

Hi Thanks for that

That is the solution to the problem.

I don't belive !!!
I have give you the solution (the better) and you give point to the garethh86
That allot unfair!!

Ahhhh Crap, Jpaulino the accepted solution was supposed to be yours, I didnt realise that someone else posted what is the same solution. Bugger

Ok, someone will fix it!

Im quite happy to re-post again under new question

Your suggestion is better I'll request attention to this thread and a correction to the points.

Thanks !

Sorry, I made my post at the same time so didn't see your solution jpaulino, otherwise I wouldn't have posted. Nothing untoward, I wasn't trying to steal points. I'm more than happy to have the points moved over if possible, I must admit I was a little surprised when my solution was accepted.

Glad you got it working though!

Thanks

Gareth

No problem Gareth and have a nice Easter! :)

Thank you for the solution and sorry for the initial mix up
