I realize how different VB has become when it comes to Windows Store apps. Many things differ so much.
Int(numeric expression) has disappeared, and I do not see how to convert an expression from number+decimal to number only, as I would get 1 from int(1.314116) in desktop VB.
What would I use for a Windows Store VB app ?
I need a reference where I can see all expressions available in what appears to be a new language altogether. I tried to find that in the Microsoft reference, but all keywords I tried never go me there.
It is a bit humiliating to find out that VB I have used for so many years has become a lot less intuitive. I ordered "Build Windows 8 apps with Microsoft Visual C# and Visual Basic Step by Step" published by Microsoft but it will take a while for
it to be delivered. That is the only book I found about using VB to develop WS apps. Hope it will suffice !
