Arduino LM335 and visual basic 6

the label5.caption= TempNow is just for displaying the temperature, is there another way when using Functions,please tell me..

so i basically could remove the whole "For i=1 to 5" line?
or decrease it to 1...3?

Do you mean something like
a=left(str,3,1)
b=right(str,9,1)
c=mid(str,b-a)

if not....please write an example, i think i understand it better that way.
