Interger overflow exception

[djones1941]

How do I turn on the integer overflow checking to On, so that I can get a System.OverflowException exception thrown. 'Declare FirstNum and SecondNum variables Dim FirstNum, SecondNum As Short Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click End End Sub Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click 'Assign text box values to variables Try FirstNum = TextBox1.Text SecondNum = TextBox2.Text Catch When Err.Number = 6 'Overflow error MsgBox("Out of calculators peramiters") Catch When Err.Number = 11 'Division by zero error MsgBox("Can't divide by zero") End Try 'Determine checked button and calculate If RadioButton1.Checked = True Then TextBox3.Text = FirstNum + SecondNum End If If RadioButton2.Checked = True Then TextBox3.Text = FirstNum - SecondNum End If If RadioButton3.Checked = True Then TextBox3.Text = FirstNum * SecondNum End If If RadioButton4.Checked = True Then TextBox3.Text = FirstNum / SecondNum End If End Sub End Class Thanks for the Help Dave

Do the following... 1) Right click on your project in the Solution Explorer. 2) Select Properties. 3) Select "All Configurations" in the Configuration ComboBox in the top left corner. 4) Select ConfigurationProperties\Optimizations in the tree. 5) Uncheck "Remove integer overflow checks".
