checking data type inside textboxes

[Fatalkaiser]

How do i check if the text in a textbox contains integers/string/boolean etc values?
is it something along the lines of this?

Textbox1.text.Contains.String

You can use the Char class.

Char.IsLetter - for letters
Char.IsNumber or Char.IsNumber - for Numbers

Hope this will help you.

Let me know if you still have questions.

Jah Bless!!!

Textbox1.text.Contains.String

The text contianed within a textbox is always of type string.

If you want a boolean, use a Checkbox. If you want a number, use a NumericUpDown
