Solution 2

Use the Version Class[^]:

VB.NET

Dim lstrSIOSchemaVersion As String = cboConfig.Items(0)

Dim ver As Version
If Version.TryParse(lstrSIOSchemaVersion, ver) Then
    lstrSIOSchemaVersion = ver.ToString()
End If

Solution 1

Simplest would be to use Strings.Split[^], convert the array to integer, and then Strings.Join[^]
