.net: Displaying Certain Portions Of A Decimal Value?

OK, I've got my program that works perfectly, however it is displaying the total from the calculations to multiple amounts of decimal places. If there a way to limit the value that is being displayed down to say 2 decimal places??
View 5 RepliesI am writing a custom totaling method for a grid view. I am totaling fairly large numbers so I'd like to use a decimal to get the total. The problem is I need to control the maximum length of the total number. To solve this problem I started using float but it doesn't seem to support large enough numbers, I get this in the totals column(1.551538E+07). So is there some formating string I can use in .ToString() to guarentee that I never get more then X characters in the total field? Keep in mind I'm totaling integers and decimals.

My user requests to change the . on the numpad to a when entering text in a multiline textbox.So I was thinking about the KeyDown event.To determine if the numpad . was pressed I can do something like this [code]But now how do I change the returned charachter as a , ? All e.Key... properties are ReadOnly. The KeyPress events let me change this by providing e.KeyChar, but in that event I can't check for the numpad .
View 2 RepliesHow would I go about rounding up decimal numbers to the nearest 2 decimal places? For example $7.0000032 would be $7.01 In theory, VB would make it $7.00 but if it is > $7.00, I want it to reflect that to the nearest penny... so $3.0000001 would be $3.01

Is it casting from a double to a decimal implicitly. How would I do this explicitly in vb.net?
1) One Decimal Varibale stores a decimal value
2) The value must be converted in string ( some time the comma is used as decimalplaceholder some time the dot)
3) the user modifies the value
4) i need to riconvert the string back in decimal
how can i do this
so:
Variable 123.34D ----> textBox 123,34 or 123.34 -----> variable 123.34D
Is there a way in VB .NET to have a decimal variable with 40 decimal places?
View 3 RepliesMaybe this is just a really basic question that everyone knows the answer to, and is why I couldn't find the answer. What I want to do is pretty simple. I want to declare a custom type that's just like a Single, except when you access the value, you get the value rounded to the second or third decimal place. Something like this:
Dim MyNumer as TwoDecimalNumber
MyNumer = 1.124
Msgbox(MyNumber) 'This would pop up a box showing "1.12"

Problem: Using the sub routing below, when adding a value to another value the results eventually change from 2-decimal places to multiple decimal places.Basically, the amount stored should always only be 2 decimal places, because the values passed in are always 2 decimal places. Output from calling the sub routine multiple times.
Running total = 329430.75
New Withheld Amount = 710.79
Running total = 330141.54

As a workaround, I have a new routine that uses a custom round function to properly store only 2 decimal places - as the VB round function does not perform the type of rounding desired.I understand that we are removing the value from the dictionary and adding it back..

View 3 RepliesI have a string which looks like this 512.3 is there a way to add a trailing zero so it looks like this 512.30 Just to clarify (sorry I didn't know there where different ways etc.) My string is an amount which is passed so changes all the time I only need the trailing zero on amounts like 512.3, 512.4,512.5 etc. as some of my amounts will pass values like 512.33 and 512.44 and so on
View 4 RepliesI am trying to convert information stored in a file to a decimal (or ASCII) format, then write the contents of that file to a new file.
What I have is a list of files that are generated from a cash register. The documentation that was provided to me says that this particular file I am trying to work with has a length of 6, a width of 6, and that it's BCD type.
I've done quite a few google searches and can't seem to find a good solution. I know BCD numbers should be stored as 0000 format. But the problem I'm getting is when I read each part of the file (using my sr.read) I'm getting full numbers..and I am expecting the 0000 format. I'll get a 0, 0, 0, and then all of the sudden I"ll get a number that's 65,000..then I'll get a 34...and there doesn't seem to be any
I'm sure I'm doing something incorrect here, my knowledge of reading HEX, BCD, etc. is very minimal. I'm guessing it has to do with using a filestream, so I can use the fs.ReadByte() method..but when I tried that my program was literally chugging along for several minutes with no sign of ending.[code]...
I am trying to write a code for a curency convertor.The result from multiplying the amount by the exchange has to be to 2 decimal places in order to convert it into Pounds and Pence.
Dim Currency As String
Dim Exchange As Decimal

Currency = txtCurrency.Text
Exchange = txtExchange.Text
Amount = txtAmount.Text
Result = Amount * Exchange
lblOutputMessage.Text = Result

View 12 RepliesUsing Visual Studio I'm using TextRange processing a word at a time, parsing for figures and minus values etc. All of which works. However I have to honour the original number of decimal places in the figures, even though they may be 0's.ie -1219.0 and 1219.00 are both valid inputs the valid outputs would be(1,219.0) and 1,219.00, I can't just use tostring and stamp all of them as "N2" etc).I have to format including retaining the trailing 0 if necessary.I can use "#,##0.######" but that removes trailing 0's... ie both above example would be changed to 1,219 pos or neg.

View 1 RepliesI'm working on a calculator application and one function is to find midpoints on a cartesian coordinate system. I have inputs for two x and two y coordinates , and the program calculates the midpoints of both and prints them in a text box as a new set of coordinates. The points are represented by doubles to allow decimal and negative points, but I want to round the final coordinates to 1 decimal place. e.g: (12.5, 9.8) Math.Round would work, except that it only seems to be able to round to a whole number. e.g: (12, 10)
Is there any way to specify how many decimal places Math.Round rounds to, or is there another function that could acheive this result?
