Decimal TryParse in VBA

Question

I am attempting to tryparse using decimal; however, I keep getting an "Object Required" run-time error. I'm not certain what I'm doing wrong. I'm used to doing a tryparse in C#. This is VBA, so the language translation is not clicking just yet. Any help appreciated.

 Sub try()
        Dim val As Variant
        Dim res As Boolean

        res = Decimal.TryParse("2.5", val)
        MsgBox (res & ":" & val)
    End Sub

Answer 1

You can try CInt and check for a specific error using On Error Goto.
