What a shame
My problem is I have numx as Textbox and then this:

If Sgn(num1) = -1 Or Sgn(num2) = -1 then

dosnt work so only way for me is:

num1_new = CLng(num1)
num2_new = CLng(num2)

If Sgn(num1_new) = -1 Or Sgn(num2_new) = -1 then

is that?

Hi
AFAIK it is not possible to change the variable's data type during
runtime

Looks like I have problem with data declarations.

Do you know how can I change data declaration?
I know this

new = CDbl(old)

but I need something like this:

old = CDbl(old)
...but this of course dosnt work

is there something like this

old = set as double
