And you need change the way you turn <code>textBox3.Text<\/code> into an integer. You don&#8217;t parse the whole expression, <code>textBox3.Text + num<\/code>; <code>num<\/code> is a number already. All you need (or want) to parse is <code>textBox3.Text<\/code>, because it&#8217;s a string. And we&#8217;ll use a different way of parsing, so that if the text doesn&#8217;t represent a number, it will fail politely instead of throwing an exception. <\/p>\n<pre><code>public int IncreaseStudents(int num)\n{\n    int n;\n    if (int.TryParse(textBox3.Text, out n))\n    {\n         return n + num;\n    }\n    else\n    {\n         MessageBox.Show(\"Not a number: \" + textBox3.Text);\n         return num;\n    }\n}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>Then this line of code should work fine &#8212; unless <code>s1._stdNumber<\/code> is something weird that you can&#8217;t add to. <\/p>\n<pre><code>listBox1.Items.Add(s1._stdNumber + IncreaseStudents(25));\n<\/code><\/pre>\n<p>But that&#8217;s not the assignment.
