|    Problem adding currency in VB6    |
|    15 May 06 18:54:09    |
      XPost: microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb       From: sluke4@webbox.com              Hi,              I'm trying to write a simple program to print invoices for people I do work       for. I've got a form with textboxes for descriptions and amounts for items,       and some code for printing the invoices. It all works except for the one       line that adds all of the item amounts. At run time, a "type mismatch"       error is thrown. I've tried a couple of different things, but the code       won't work. Is there something special about adding currency I'm missing?       I've also tried making everything a string, and when I add amounts, it will       just concatenate the strings. Also, this method won't let me subtract       discounts.              Any help or code snippets would be greatly appreciated.              Thanks,                     Steven Smith              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
