Converting a string into an integer

[Cableguy]

This may seem a dumb question coming from an "expert" (so they say), but I think this is something we all stumble upon at some time...And for a noob, it would be a major help...

In my particular case, I have a list populated from a file... Therefore, all values are kept as strings...but I need to use some of them as integers (ex, to use them in ARGB format)...

I have tried the "usual" method:

Dim b as Int
b=List1.Get(2)

but this still gives a wrong java number format error when executing...

Check the length of the string and do a For loop and ASC() on each character. You might have a space or CRLF in the string.

That might just be case, I haven't thought of that...Thanks Andrew

Have you tried logging b to see what it thinks it is?
