    Dim sNum As String
    sNum = "Year: 2000, date: 12"
    ' Text1 will contain 200012
    Text1.Text = Val(sNum)

    This code is flat-out wrong.

    The VAL function searches the source string, converting the string to a numeric value until it reaches the first non-numeric character. Since this example BEGINS with a non-numeric character, the returned value will be zero (0).
