Changing data type

I need this variable to be a string. When I replace Integer with string it says that a string is not part of the parse family. Anyone know what I can Change.

Dim LoadItemNumber = Integer.Parse(cboItemNumber.Text)

In VB I think the syntax is
a_number = val(a_string)
a_string = str(a_number)

Parse is a .NET method
