i want to use this on my pda app but it appears the compact framework doesnt have a TryParse method for textboxes

Dim theValue As Double



If theValue.Parse(TextBox1.Text, Globalization.NumberStyles.Float, Application.CurrentCulture.NumberFormat, theValue) = True then

MsgBox("True")

Else

MsgBox("False")

' Not a valid number

End If
 
should read theValue.TryParse........

Use Double.Parse and catch FormatException - if the call succeeds, it's
a valid number, otherwise it's not.
