Hi Folks,

If a function returns a Double, but need I an integer, shouldn't I be able to simply cast the result of a call that returns a double to an integer?

  Me.Width = Integer(Graphics.Stringwidth(thestring))

The compiler informs me that it "Expected Int32, but got Double". Isn't that supposed to be resolved by the cast to Integer?

A slightly confused,
Tim
