Does anyone know how to add labels?
I have 5 labels or so which display the cost of a certain food. eg lblBurger will display the cost for how ever many burgers you order. I need a label to display the total cost, but when I added the lalels up they just did it like this : lblburger would be $3 lblChips $2 so i would do lbltotal = lblchips +lblburger
but it would come out as 32
Anyone know the correct way to add these?

I haven't used vb for a while, but i believe you need to do this:

( lbltotal.text = lblchips.tetx + lblburger.text )

try it out

actually sorry, im not sure if the above will do anything different

you might have to convert the lblchips and lblburger to an int or double, then do the addition

so something like this:

dim chips as Integer
dim burger as Integer
dim total as Integer

chips = CInt(lblchips.text)
burger = CInt(lblburger.text)
total = burger + chips
lbltotal.text = total
