Hello
txtID.Text contains a 6 digit Integer number with no decimals, no chars...
Dim j As Integer = Cint(txtID.Text )
or
Dim j As Integer = Convert.ToInt32 (txtID.Text)
Is there any difference between these 2 statements? Is one statement more
correct than the other?
Thanks,
Rich

Well, there *is* a difference:
any the following literals would raise an exception if Convert.ToInt32
was used instead of CInt:
? CInt("123.456")
? CInt("123,456")
? CInt("&h123")
In other words, CInt (when passed a string) performs more work than
Convert.ToInt32 .

Thanks. I guess I will stay with Convert.ToInt32 .

Not really. I'd try to avoid 'Convert.ToInt3 2' and use 'CInt' or
'Integer.Parse' instead.

Rich,
Yes there are,
Convert.ToInt32 is longer and it converts to Int32
CInt converts to Integer what should be represent the best internal format
to use by the computer. Unlucky enough has a big lobby changed the last for
the 64bit version and are there extra instructions needed now (they are fast
but still take time).

Need a little help here. I saw some related posts, so here goes... I have some textboxes which are designed for the user to enter a integer value.

The thing keeps throwing Format Exceptions all over the place. What is the "C#" way to do this??? code

I have following "problem".
int id = (int)SQlHelper.ExecuteScala(...) - it returns object ( which is int )

Hi,
I wonder if somebody could explain me the difference between Double.Parse and Convert.ToDouble. If I'm not mistaken they are implemented differently (I though for a moment they might be the same like cint(anInt) and cType(anInt, System.Int32) but I checked with ildasm) - if I didn't made a mistake.
So when to use which syntax? Is there any performance penalty when using the one over the other or does anybody knows any differences?

I'm familiar with CInt(value) but I'm not with Int32.Parse(value). They seem
to do the same thing. Is there a big difference between the two and when
would one be best applied over the other?

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
