-HELP- sum of 2 textboxs and then getting the total in the last textbox

[wlee1970]

I am trying to get 2 numbers from 2 textboxs and get a return sum in the third textbox. the strange thing is that i got it to work with this code that i am going to provide on the last app i worked on, now on the new app i am on it doesnt work at all.. I am not getting any Errors, just shows a zero when i calculate to the sum of the total textbox.

int sum1 = 0;
            int sum2 = 0;
            int result = 0;

            if (int.TryParse(txtPrice.Text, out sum1) & int.TryParse(txtQuantity.Text, out sum2))
                result = sum1 * sum2;
            txtSubTotal.Text = result.ToString();

In what way does it not work? Are you getting an error message? What is the error message?

Also, in your code, you are multiplying, not adding.

Not getting an error messsage at all.. it just shows a zero in the third sum total textbox

I would check the values of all the variables along each step of the code to make sure it's populating correctly.

I dont see any difference, everything seems to be right but it isnt doing what it suppose to do, examples would be nice :)

So you're saying the debugger shows the correct value is the variable result?

[wlee1970]

thats correct, no errors, but i get a zero on the total.

There's some sort of miscommunicatio n happening. With the code you posted and the description of what you want, it's very unlikely that the value in the variable result is correct.

You said you wanted to add 2 numbers. But your code shows that you are multiplying. So unless your test numbers are 2 and 2, or something like that, there's no way your result variable should hold the correct value.

What miscommunicatio n are you talking about.. adding two numbers was misdirected, i wanted multiply those numbers to get the sum of the total. Is there another ways to do this, then this type of code...

[wlee1970]

ok I wrote another program using the same code and it worked, would it be something in the program on the inventory system i am working on causing issues or to much code under one button.

[wlee1970]

ok what i had to do is add another button to the inventory system and it seem to work out... i had to much code under the Add button, when I created the Sum button everything stop freaking out.

I'm not sure I understand what you just said but it sounds like you fixed your problem?
