Str function in VB

[CarolineS]

Hi,

I'm a beginner in VB. I tried to change an integer to string using str as below

Dim z As Integer
Dim s As String

z = 100
s = Str(z)
Combo2.AddItem (s)

when 100 is converted to string there is a space added in the start of the string.

it is " 100" instead of 100. Please let me know if there are any other functions for changing integer 100 to "100"

Regards,
Carol.

try:

s = trim(str(z))

I believe this is the correct syntax:

Dim z As Integer
Dim s As String

z = 100
s = CStr(z)

Right.
The str() function takes in account that there might be a negative number, preceded by a '-'. Str() precedes positive numbers with a blank and will thus result in equal length strings to positive and negative numbers. (Str(-100) has the same length as str(100))
