To the reply from Allan Bressler I would add that it appears you are using int
values for your calculation, so instead of Double you will have to use
Integer.  But the same general solution will work.  If you expect to receive
non-Integer values in textFieldControl1 then, obviously, the solution offered
to Allan will work fine.
