In vb 2005, you can upgrade your vb 6 codes to .NET. I didn't yet used vb 2008 but I hope that this feature has been included .

according to msdn, IsNumeric should work in .Net 3.5 (VB 2008) as well: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6cd3f6w1.aspx

Well im afraid to say...i cant seem to find it.

and the convert up code feature seems see isnumeric as correct for vb 2008 but vb just doesnt seem to accept it.

Do i need to import a specific reference?

yes, you need to import Microsoft.VisualBasic - it's on the msdn page:

"Requirements
- Namespace: Microsoft.VisualBasic
- Module: Information
- Assembly: Visual Basic Runtime Library (in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll)"

if you add

Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic

at the top, it will work.
