How do I convert "+" to + to use in a calculation. I'm using VB 2015.

Thanks!

I'm sure I did something like this in Uni years ago using java with Stacks, pushing and popping values and then performing the calculations.

Are you writing a Calculator app?
Can you not have a + button and perform the operation that way?

You could have a Switch or If statement and compare the string "+" and if so do the operation.

Maybe the Eval() function?
VBScript Eval() (from the awesome ss64)
Eval("1 + 1") returns 2.

People have tried to write there own for .NET with Reflection etc, have a search there are a number.
