String & Variable Concatenation problem

[bd02eagle]

Here's a C++ statement:
double B1 = 2.0;
cout << "B1 = " << B1 << "lbs." << endl;

Whats the equivalent code in Borland C++ Builder?
I know

RichEdit1->Lines->Append("B1");

does the first part but Im not familiar with string and variable concatenation.
Thanks

Try:

RichEdit1->Lines->Add("B1 =" + String(B1) + " lbs.");

Alternately, you can try:

String B1Str = "B1 = " + FloatToStr(B1) + " lbs";
// or if you wanted the resulting string formated
String B2Str = "B1 = " + FloatToStrF(B1, ffFixed, 10, 1) // Fixed decimal with 10 digits total, 1 decimal place.
RichEdit1->Lines->Add(B1); // non formated
RichEdit1->Lines->Add(B2); // formated

Both ideas work great. Thanks!
