Why am I getting a FormatException was unhandled error?

I have created a program, and a extensive test of it, I\'m getting a error that says \"FormatException was unhandled, Input string was not in a correct format\". The problem

Answer 1

You could use int.TryParse, which returns a bool to indicate whether the text was parsed successfully:

int minsEntered = 0;
if (int.TryParse(txtMins.Text, out minsEntered))
{
    // txtMins.Text is a valid integer.
}
