Using Microsoft Visual Basic Express 2010

This is the code i used:

Dim b As Integer = TextBox1.Text
Dim c As Integer = TextBox2.Text
Dim a As Integer = b * c
MsgBox(a

Why does this visual basic code not work and how do i fix it to make it work? It is supposed to multiply any two numbers I input into the text boxes but whenever I 'start debugging', it says:

"Conversion from string "" to type 'Integer' is not valid." and it highlights 'As Integer = TextBox1.Text' (part of first line of text)
Ive been trying to figure out why it wont work for a while now. Please help! And please be detailed in answer.
Thanks
