You are right. But that was not the question. He wants to know how we correct this code. The right answer: Read the compiler error which is here sure to come. Then, look at the code line. After that, think about how the error may relate to the code line, using the MSDN if needed. Last, replacing the (hopefully) spotted error with correct code. And, most of all, not by posting questions to such obvious things without even mentioning the error and its location.

Hi wolfsor,

You can use this one also :

if (txtBalance.Text.Equals("0"))

I hope this help,
:)

Solution 1

You can use this

VB

if (Convert.toInteger16(txtBalance.Text) == 0)

or

if (txtBalance.Text == "0")

Second one is correct. My vote of 2 was because Convert.toInterger16 might throw an error, use int.TryParse instead.
