CInt Function

This standard VB function converts an expression to the data type integer by rounding.

Syntax

CInt(expression)

Returns

The value of expression as an integer.

Usage

After rounding, the resulting number must be within the range of -32767 to 32767, or an error occurs.

Strings that cannot be converted to an integer result in a Type Mismatch error. Variants containing null result in an Illegal Use of Null error.

Sub Button_Click
   Dim score As Integer
   Dim x, sum
   Dim msgtext
   Let sum = 0
   For x = 1 to 10
      score = 7-
      sum = sum + score
   Next x
      msgtext = "Your average is: " & _
         Format(CInt(sum/ (x - 1)), "General Number")
End Sub
