Well, I would suggest starting by not trying to subtract a name from a number - it generally doesn't work too well...

I would also suggest using int.TryParse to convert the textbox values to numbers - with error reporting if the user types a non-numeric value.

VB

Dim charge As Integer
If Not Integer.TryParse(txtCharge.Text, charge) Then
    ' Report error
    ...
    Return
End If
Dim payment As Integer
If Not Integer.TryParse(txtPayment.Text, payment) Then
    ' Report error
    ...
    Return
End If
Dim balance As Integer = charge - payment
txtBalance.Text = balance.ToString()

sorry dude but your answer is not exactly my what i want to do..in this case i want to compute the charge and payment so charge - payment = balance .... so this is the problem when the answer is become negative i think this not a balance...it is a change ..so i trying to say if the answer is become negative the answer fill to another textbox which is the change ....

Ah! You need to explain these things... :laugh:
Do exactly as above, but replace the last line with:
If balance >= 0 Then
txtBalance.Text = balance.ToString()
Else
txtChange.Text = balance.ToString()
End If
