Number to String conversion

Hi,
I am trying to use following 'vlb' variable value in a string comparing with value.equals() funtion.

when i use, vlb = "07" --- it works fine
when i use, (value.equals("5th Month"+lb.toString()))...it doesn't work

if (dph.getSeriesDisplayValue().equals("Series 1"))
{
value = dph.getBaseValue();

// compare with "5th Month07"
if ( value.equals("5th Month"+lb))
fill.set(0,0,255);

}

Any suggestions?

mh10,

Most likely if it's in integer form, it won't have the '0' in front of the '7'. It'll just be '7'. So, when you do your concatenation of "5th Month" and lb.toString(), you're probably getting "5th Month7". If you do "5th Month0" + lb.toString(), does it work?
