trackbar value IN C#

Question

I have a question related to trackbars in C#.

I need to pass a string value to trackbar. Suppose I have a number 3. It is saved as a string "three". Now I need to use this to set trackbar value to 3. How do I do that in C#.

I tried

trackBarSpeed.Value.ToString() = hant; // hant = "three"

and trackBarSpeed.Value = int.Parse(hant); but nothing seems to work///// PLZ help....

The .NET framework doesn't have a method which converts a string representation of a number (i.e. three) to the number itself (i.e. 3). If you only wanted numbers from zero to ten say then you could do this: private string[] numbers = new string[]{zero one two three four five six seven eight nine ten}; // ... int val = Array.IndexOf(numbers hant); if (val > - 1) { trackBarSpeed.Value = val; }
