There are functions for trncating roudning etc. But you can just divide by 2 and take the integer of this. And then multiply by 2. If you get the number you started with then the number is even. If you don't then the number is odd.





Example.


1 ... int(1/2) = 0 ... 2*0 = 0 and 0 does not equal 1 so odd


2 ... int(2/2) = 1 ... 2*1 = 2 and 2 equals 2 so even





This will work with any number (up to the limit for integers so you should make your variables Long and use CLng and this will allow a much larger range of numbers).





Dim a As Long


Dim b As Long





a = Text1.Text


b = 2*CLng(Text1.Text / 2)





If a = b Then


MsgBox (';Even number';)


Else


MsgBox (';Odd Number';)


End If
