[thelist] addition vs. string concatenation - oops

[Mark Joslyn]

The message should read:

I have the following expression:

dim intTe, intPL, intCon, intMain
intTE = intPC + intPL + intCon + intMain

The variables are passing in from a standard html form:

intPC = Request.Form("pc")
intPL = Request.Form("pl")
intCon = Request.Form("con")
intMain = Request.Form("main")

Now, my expression is not adding these numbers together, but instead is
string concatenating the results. So, my result looks like this:

(i.e. pc=50, pl=50, con=50, main=50)

50505050 instead of 200.

Is there something I can place in front of the variables to force the
addition. I have tried Cint, isNumeric, cCur, etc. I am not sure why these
variables are coming through as strings while others (from the same form)
are coming through as numbers.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
