Public Shared Function ToString (
	value As Short
) As String

Parameters

value
Type: System.Int16

The 16-bit signed integer to convert.

Return Value

Type: System.String

The string representation of value.

This implementation is identical to Int16.ToString().

The following example converts each element in an array of 16-bit integers to its equivalent string representation.

Dim numbers() As Short = { Int16.MinValue, -138, 0, 19, Int16.MaxValue }
Dim result As String

For Each number As Short In numbers
   result = Convert.ToString(number)
   Console.WriteLine("Converted the {0} value {1} to the {2} value {3}.", _
                        number.GetType().Name, number, _
                        result.GetType().Name, result)
Next     
' The example displays the following output:
'    Converted the Int16 value -32768 to the String value -32768.
'    Converted the Int16 value -138 to the String value -138.
'    Converted the Int16 value 0 to the String value 0.
'    Converted the Int16 value 19 to the String value 19.
'    Converted the Int16 value 32767 to the String value 32767.
