Hi,
To convert a negative to a positive you could use abs()statement(absolute value). To convert to Integer use to
Cint() statement
e.g.
Text1.Text = CInt(Abs(MyNum1 - MyNum2))

intA = -12
intB = -36
intC = ABS(inta - intB)

Is this what you are asking?

If isnumeric(x) then
if x<0 then
'x it's negative
x=abs(x) ' convert it
elseif x=0 then
'x it's 0
else
'x>0
endif
endif

if You want to sure the received value it's a number in the Validate event (or in the Exit) transform it:
me.txtX=Val(me.txtX)

I guess you could use something like
x=abs(x)
y=abs
z=abs(x-y)
