It's not the division so much as the fact the operator (\ in my example)
wants integer arguments. VB converts the floating point 1.5 to an integer
before doing the integer divide. The conversion is the same as calling
CInt. Therefore, 1.5 becomes 2, and 1.5 \ 1 becomes 2.

Like many things in VB, it's sort of understandable, but a shock when you
first meet it.

Mod also wants integer arguments, so anything else you give it will be
converted via CInt.
