Hello, I've been spending most of the day trying to figure out how to properly convert from an integer to a string; so I can add a loop where if you input a letter instead of a number you have to re-enter.the number instead of just crashing. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

What I have tried:

Ive tried things along this line:

VB

Score = Console.ReadLine() Or Score = CStr(Score)

Haven't you tried toString() method of int class ? it is bit simple
int a = 10;
string sz = a.toString();

Read it as a string, then use Integer.TryParse to convert it:

VB.NET

Dim x As Integer
If Not Integer.TryParse(stringFromUser, x) Then
	' report problem to user.
        Return
End If
