string to double try parse ---decimals lost

[Clarkie]

Hi!

I have a string that I try to convert into a double

Dim dblOrgAmount As Integer
Dim sLine as string
Dim blnSuccess As Boolean
blnSuccess = Double.TryParse(sLine.Substring(65, 15), dblOrgAmount)

The problem is that dblOrgAmount does not contain any decimals, though the
string does.
EG
-8967676.675 ----> -8967677

I am using "en-US" as culture for the current thread.

Any ideas?

Enable Option Strict.

I have a string that I try to convert into a double

Dim dblOrgAmount As Integer

=> 'Dim dblOrgAmount As Double'-

What a mistake!

I should get some sleep I guess!

Thanks!
