Adding won't work???
Hello Everyone,
I loaded up a few variables from some cells in a sheet. BAdult and BChild. They contain numbers. But, when I put in this code to crosscheck that they don't exceed a value of 12. It is not working because instead of adding them, it puts them together. If BAdult + BChild 20 Then MsgBox "Max people in Business Class is 12!", vbInformation, "Compartment Error": BAdult.SetFocus: Exit Sub The values of BAdult is 6 and BChild is 8, it is bringing up the MsgBox because it is saying the value is 68, instead of 14?? How can I add these two variables instead of concanting them?? |

How are BAdult and BChild Declared. They should be
Dim BAdult as Integer Dim BChild as Integer If you have not declared them then by default they will be of type variant which is not numeric. You could convert them to numbers using CInt(BAdult) + CInt(BChild) But you are better off to declare them explicitly with the Dim Statement.

Hi Michael,
How have you dimmed the BAdult and BChild variables? I could concatenate if I dimmed them as strings; otherwise the expected sum was returned. --- Regards, Norman "Michael Vaughan" wrote in message ...

Michael,
Did you use the Text property of the Range? If so, try the Value property instead. -- HTH RP (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "Michael Vaughan" wrote in message ...
