Thanks for any clue...

Please post the full text of the error message with your question.
It has the line number where the error occured.

What data type are you storing the value in? What is the maximum value that the data type will hold?
For example a byte can only hold 256 different values.

Ah! Thank you so much Norm, I just forgot int can only hold (2 to the power 31 -1).

Ooops!

You see, I was converting an earlier VB6 routine into Java; In VB the data type was Variant, here I'm using int, so it's turned out that I need to break the data here before converting it.

Thanks again, :) Problem solved.
