numero = Integer.parseInt(temp);
Is is giving me a numberFormatExeption error Knowing that temp is a string and numero is declared to be an interger
can anyone help

NumberFormatException indicates that string contains some non-numeric data, which converter is not able to convert.
Which string are you trying to convert?

Amol.

You might want to try and catch that exception.

int iNumber;
String sNumber = " 23";

try   {
   // trim the value and try to parse
   iNumber = Integer.parseInt(sNumber.trim());
}catch(NumberFormatException nfe){
   // it's not a number
}
