ToDecimal

[John]

I am just starting to use asp.net and I do not have the
ToDecimal function. Do I have to install a library to
get it?

Convert.ToDouble Method Converts a specified value to a
double-precision floating point number.

This is .Net frame work class library. No need of separate
Intallation. At Framework SDK documentation you will get
the details regarding other Convert methods.

John,
You can convert to a double by either using the Double's Parse method
or VB.NET's CType (or C# Convert).

Dim s1 As String = "1.1"
Dim d1 As Double = Double.Parse(s1)
Dim d2 As Double = CType(s1, Double)

I think Carl forgot that you were talking about Decimal. Everything
he said about Double will also work for Decimal. (
CarlsMessage.Replace("Double", "Decimal") should take care of it
<grin>)
