It's great to know that is numeric works,
however, do you know if there is a dotnet method that has replace it,
for example TRIM() had been replaced with string.trim..
I'm just curious, thats all.

Hi Martin,
You can use IsNumeric in VB.NET just fine. Don't worry about importing the
VB libraries. I read that some routines are optimized for VB so
workarounds could be slower.

news:%2****************@TK2MSFTNGP11.phx.gbl... Hi,
is there a dotnet function (other than the old isnumeric from VB) to
check whether an object is numeric or not.
also I notice that all the old vb functions such as split / isnumeric /
ubound etc are still availible by default in any VB.net web application.
is this because the vb library is being imported??
would it be best to totally remove this library (assuming that it is
being imported - which I can't see in my references) so that references to old
vb
style functions will result in a compile time error.
many thanks in advance
cheers
