Is there an efficient method in VB to check if a string can be converted to a double?I'm currently doing this by trying to convert the string to a double and then seeing if it throws an exception. But this seems to be slowing down my application.
Try
' if number then format it.
current = CDbl(x)

Iam using VB 2005 on Vista This is a sample of what I am doing:
Public Class Form 1 Dim WC As String Private Sub Button1_Click
[Code]...
How do I get around this? What I am trying to do is, I really want to use TextBox's for input to enter numbers when the program is running and I also want a MsgBox to appear if an input is not entered because these numbers are important to a final formula further down.

Dim curBalance As Double
xmlNode = xmlDoc.GetElementsByTagName("vitals")......xmlDoc contains the above xml data
curBalance = System.Convert.ToDouble(xmlNode.Item(0).Item("balance").InnerText)... I think so error is on this line.

Let's say I want to convert a Double x to a Decimal y. There's a lot of ways to do that:
1. var y = Convert.ToDecimal(x); // Dim y = Convert.ToDecimal(x)
2. var y = new Decimal(x); // Dim y = new Decimal(x)
3. var y = (decimal)x; // Dim y = CType(x, Decimal)
4. -- no C# equivalent -- // Dim y = CDec(x)
Functionally, all of the above do the same thing (as far as I can tell). Other than personal taste and style, is there a particular reason to choose one option over the other?
EDIT: This is the IL generated by compiling the three C# options in a Release configuration:
1. call valuetype [mscorlib]System.Decimal [mscorlib]System.Convert::ToDecimal(float64)
--> which calls System.Decimal::op_Explicit(float64)

I am trying to convert an SMS to double. I'm creating a monitoring system where values like "45.2" are sent to another modem.

In my vb.net code, I had the following code:

Follow-Up available: There's a follow-up with further details, see Convert MBF to IEEE.
I've got some legacy data which is still in use, reading the binary files is not the problem, the number format is. All floating point numbers are saved in MBF format (Single and Double). I've found a topic about that on the MSDN boards but that one only deals with Single values. I'd also would like to stay away from API-Calls as far as I can.
Edit: Just in case somebody needs it, here is the VB.NET Code (it's Option Strict compliant) I ended up with (feel free to convert it to C# and edit it in):
''' <summary>Converts a MBF Single to an IEEE Single</summary>
''' <param name="src">The MBF Single value</param>
''' <returns>The converted IEEE Single value</returns>

Let just say I have an Integer like 10,000 (that's the VALUE in want to reach). So, I have another integer like 2500 (that's my current VALUE). Third I have another Integer about 350 PER HOUR. To reach 10,000 I need 7,500 (well I already have 2,500). How long must I wait to reach the 10,000 when the increase is about 350 a Hour. Okay, that's easy: 7,500 / 350 = 21,428571 Hours. BUT how can I convert this double to a timespan? Or how is it possible to add this double value to the current Date to get the Date + Time when I reach the Value?
