' Example of the Decimal addition and subtraction operators.
Module Example
Const dataFmt As String = "{0,-38}{1,31}"
' Display Decimal parameters and their sum and difference.

outputBlock.Text += String.Format(dataFmt, "Decimal Right", Right) & vbCrLf
' The op_Addition and op_Subtraction operators must be
' explicitely coded in Visual Basic. If binary + or - are
' used, other methods are called.
