datatype mismatch error
 

Hi frnds,,
i hv a form in which i want to calculate balance.I wrote code for this as follows.
But its giving me an error as "Datatype mismatch error". I hv declared bal & amt in database as Currency.Is this proper??If not suggest me some other code plzzzz.
what datatype should I specify for these two variables??
Dim bal, amt As Integer
If (cmbtrans.SelectedItem = "DEPOSIT") Then
bal = 0
amt = Val(txtamt.Text)
bal = bal + amt
txtbalance.Text = bal

End If

Re: datatype mismatch error
 

re:
Better You can Use Double
i.e
Dim bal, amt as Double

Because amount are having decimal values.
like 0.00

and also change database Datatype to money or float(in sqlserver2000)

Re: datatype mismatch error
 

You can Use Double

Dim bal, amt as Double ' like 0.00

If you are using MS Access Database not need to change Currency Datatype
or using SQL Server 2000 in database change Datatype to money or float.
