newbie needs help

[orisons]

when I am trying to calculate something I keep getting an "overflow" error now I know this is because the numbers I am trying to multiply are large, how can I get round this???????

Change your data type to Long or Double, instead of integer.

Look in help for data type summary. A Vb Integer can contain a value from -32,768 to 32,767. So if your value that you try to put into an Integer is 32,768 you will get an over flow error.

Good Luck
