using reference objects

This is a newbie question, sorry.

I am trying to use VB.net to interact with Winfax 10.3, and keep
getting a "Specified Cast is not valid" error with the following.

Dim pageObj As wfxctl32.COleCoverPagesClass
pageObj = New wfxctl32.COleCoverPagesClass
Dim x As New Integer
x = pageObj.Count.ToString

Am I declaring this wrong. I've been trying for two days and am about
to try a bigger hammer.

Thanks for ANY help.

Hi,
I am trying to use VB.net to interact with Winfax 10.3, and keep
getting a "Specified Cast is not valid" error with the following.

Dim pageObj As wfxctl32.COleCoverPagesClass
pageObj = New wfxctl32.COleCoverPagesClass
Dim x As New Integer
x = pageObj.Count.ToString


You can put a string value into an integer. You have the choice here :

- you want to get an Integer value, use this :
Dim x As Integer = pageObj.Count

- you want to get a String value, use this :
Dim x As String = pageObj.Count.ToString

Regards;
