Str Function
This standard VB function returns a string representation of a number.
Syntax
Str[$](number)
Returns
A string representation of number.
Usage
The precision in the returned string is single precision for an integer or single-precision numeric expression; double precision for a long or double-precision numeric expression, and currency precision for currency. Variants return the precision of their underlying vartype.
The dollar sign ($) in the function name is optional. If it is specified, the return type is string. Otherwise the function returns a variant of vartype 8 (string).
Example
This example prompts for two numbers, adds them, and then shows them as a concatenated string.
Sub Button_Click
Dim x as Integer
Dim y as Integer
Dim str1 as String
Dim value1 as Integer
x = 1
y = 2
str1 = "The sum of these numbers is: " & x+y
str1 = Str(x) & Str(y)
