Returns for CStr depend on the expression argument... Boolean = A string containing True or False. Date = A string containing a date in the short date format of your system. Null = A run-time error. Empty = A zero-length string (""). Error = A string containing the word Error followed by the error number. Other numeric = A string containing the number.

Sub ConvertToString()

Dim vStr



vStr = 10000

MsgBox IsNumeric(strNum)

MsgBox IsNumeric(CStr(strNum))



End Sub
