New D.I.C Head Joined: 27 Jun, 2009 Posts: 3	I'm trying to make a metric to kilogram converter and I am having trouble starting it out. With my Answer label being txtAnswer and the Inches button being btnInches, I have ran into snags with trying to get it formulate the 37, 370 into 1 Kilometer I believe that it needs to be a sring but I am stuck. Any suggestions?
