Loading a NumericUpDown value from Properties.Settings.Default?

Question

My program saves TextBoxes via Properties.Settings so that I can close and open the program and it'll remember what's in it. That part works. However, the program also has some NumericUpDown boxes that I'd like the values to be saved as well, but the problem is that I can't seem to get it to load. Here's my code:

Loading:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   numericUpDown1.Value = Settings.Default["H1"].ToString();
}

Saving:

private void button4_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Settings.Default["H1"] = numericUpDown1.Value;
    Settings.Default.Save();
}

The error is at

Settings.Default["H1"].ToString();  

and the message is

Error 1: Cannot implicitly convert type 'string' to 'decimal'

Answer 1

The Value property expects a Decimal value to be assigned to it but you were trying to assign string . It should be

numericUpDown1.Value = Convert.ToDecimal(Settings.Default["H1"].ToString());
