379912 2005-08-10 01:20:00 I want to make a calculator with 3 text entry boxes where the person enters the two numbers and the operator (+-*/).

How do I pass the operator to a variable so that VB sees it as an operator and not a string?

Alternatively you may try a case statement to look for the operator and multiply or subtract etc as the case may be which is probably easiest.
