ADDING TextBox1 and TextBox2 results wrong

[jsundin3]

Having trouble with this one, not used to VB.NET yet. Results = 0 when hitting command button.

Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click

Dim TextBox1 As Integer

Dim TextBox2 As Integer

Dim intTotal As Integer


intTotal = (TextBox1 + Text2)

MsgBox(intTotal)
End Sub
End Class

===ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!!===

try this enstead ...

Dim textBox1Entry as integer = val(TextBox1.Text)
Dim textBox2Entry as integer = val(TextBox2.Text)
Dim intTotal As Integer = textBox1Entry + textBox2Entry

MsgBox(intTotal)

2 things ... There is no default property in VB.net, and the TEXT is now always streated as a string.

There is no reference I know where all the changes are. I am guessing because so many things have changed. However I do have 3 very good books I use, not to mentio this web site . "Microsoft Visual Basic.Net Step By Step" by Michael Halvorson, "Visual Basic.Net Bible" by Bill Evjen and Jason Beres, and "An Introduction To Programming Using Visual Basic.Net Fifth Edition" by David I Schneider. There are probably more good books out there, if anyone else knows of some, please list them.
