Question

Yes, you need to convert it to a string to display it that way, but you don’t have to convert it to a string to actually get the numeric number of millions. For instance:

Dim total As Integer = 5500000
Dim millions As Decimal = total / 1000000
Dim formatted As String = String.Format("{0} Mil.", millions)
