What's the best way in NETMF to get (int)247 from (string)"247" ?
Hope this question is clear I want to convert a number that's in a string to an integer but haven't find a decent way so far.

using System;
ActualReading = Convert.ToUInt16(sActualReading);
Started with C in 1985, moved to Vb3 ... to vb6 and stopped. Now started with .Net and learning C# and VB.net and wishing VB.net was on MF !

Does the .NETMF have the TryParse method?

No it doesn't as far as I've seen. You should try/catch it if there's a chance that it's input
is not always numeric
Windows XP SP3, Q6600.

You could also create the TryParse functionality by using the extension method features of C#.
The base class needed to add extension method support has been posted to the forums...and I believe it is built into .NET MF 4.2 as well.
