Microsoft® Visual Basic® Scripting Edition CCur Function | Language Reference Version 1

##### Description

> Returns an expression that has been converted to a Variant of subtype Currency.

##### Syntax

> CCur(expression)

> The expression argument is any valid expression.

##### Remarks

> In general, you can document your code using the subtype conversion functions to show that the result of some operation should be expressed as a particular data type rather than the default data type. For example, use CCur to force currency arithmetic in cases where integer arithmetic normally would occur.

> You should use the CCur function to provide internationally aware conversions from any other data type to a Currency subtype. For example, different decimal separators and thousands separators are properly recognized depending on the locale setting of your system.

> The following example uses the CCur function to convert an expression to a Currency:

> >     Dim MyDouble, MyCurr
> >     MyDouble = 543.214588          ' MyDouble is a Double
> >     MyCurr = CCur(MyDouble * 2)    ' Convert result of MyDouble * 2 (1086.429176)
> >                                    ' to a Currency (1086.4292)
