Currency values calculating error in vb.net

Question

I have created a small currency calculation program in vb.net. But when I am calculating two currency values, it is showing the wrong amount. My text boxes are already in currency format. Kindly looking for your help please.

Here is my code for calculation:

txtBalance.Text = Val(txtPayment.Text) + Val(txtTotalAmount.Text)

What is the exact content of the two textboxes that you are trying to convert in a number? — Steve

If I calculate two currency value, $650.00 and $5000.00 it should get output $5650.00 but I'm getting output 655 which is totally wrong calculation. — B.Nishan

You need to convert the content of the textbox you should try: CDbl(Val(txtPayment.Text)) try looking at this: stackoverflow.com/questions/1172306/convert-string-to-double-vb — Mederic

Do not use Visual Basic methods. You are writing code in vb.net. You need convert text to decimal type. Dim payment = Decimal.Parse(txtPayment.Text) — Fabio

String = (Assumed number from string) + (Assumed number from string) - adding apples and wanting oranges! Should be Number = (parsed number from string) + (parsed number from string) — AJD
