I have seen all over the internet to format a NEGATIVE double value with a parenthesis WITH a $ symbol ie. currency type.
I am looking for a .NET format string, to format
12345.67 = 12,345.67
-12345.67 = (12,345.67)
I'm outputting a Double that can be either (+) or negative (-). If the number is a negative the symbol (-) is included automatically, is there a way to do this for positive numbers as well?
The only (horrible) way I can do this is :
If MyNumber <= 0 then
string.Format("{0:0.00}", MyNumber)
Else
string.Format("+{0:0.00}", MyNumber)
End If
I am using String.Format("{0:C2}", -1234)to format numbers.is always formats the amount to a positive number, while I want it to become $*-*1234

All that is happening above is two players are being compared by scores and a winner is then decided. The calculation works fine and places the winner in the correct spot (txtWinner1.Text) as long as the numbers are positive. So if txtU1D.Text has 13 and txtU2D.Text has 14...txtU2 is the winner. Works with no problems. However, if txtU1 has -1 and txtU2 has -2...it says txtU2 is the winner. The negative scores are common in the game being played so the situation often happens, but may be one player only. It seems to work if one is positive and one is negative, but if both are negative it thinks the higher negative number is the winner for some reason. So it will give the win to someone who has -9 over someone who is -4.
I'm currently taking a VB class as a complimentary in college, so keep in mind that I'm lowest of the low when it comes to this. For my assignment, using a console application, I need to create a pyramid of stars, such as this:

I have a program in which users are entering numbers into text boxes. I'm checking for proper data entry using a TRY-CATCH block. It works great and delivers an error message if the users enter anything non-numeric.
The problem is that now I need the users to enter negative values, but the TRY-CATCH is seeing the negative sign as non-numeric.
I have written a program that generates and prints 10 random integers from -10 to 10, my problem is that I am returning both negative and positive numbers, aligned right with a pad of 2, but the negative is on the right hand side of my number instead of the left. here is my code, all work but I need to align the numbers and have the correct notation of negative.

I need to create a control for input a currecncies to a field. I'm planning to use a Textbox.
This is the format of the text box for currencies:
"XXXXXXXX.XX"
the dot "." must be fixed in the textbox and it should be loaded with the textbox. Furthermroe i have plans to code eachtime a user enters a number it should print the numbers from Right ot left.
eg: When user enters Number 1234.34
When the user enter these number they should display them as:
when user enters 1
0000.01
when the user enters 2:
0000.12
when the user enter 3:0001.23
When the user enters 4:
0012.34
When the user enters 3:0123.43
When the user enters 4:(after entering all digits in the number)1234.34
Could any one give a couple of ideas how to creat these kind of boxes?

I have strings like:
1. Three (3) 10,000 gallons underground gasoline storage tanks.
2. Equip ID: (23-1)
I want to extract the '3' and the '23-1' and from the strings. I can rely on the first set being inside ( ) as the strings I need. The strings will be numeric characters plus the dash (anything between ( ) would be preferable.) What RegEx pattern would I use?
Here's what I have so far but it gets the first number and not the ones in ( ):
Function Extract_Stuff(ByVal LineText As String) As String
Dim myMatches As MatchCollection
Dim myRegex As New Regex("([0-9]+)")
myMatches = myRegex.Matches(LineText)
For Each successfulMatch As Match In myMatches
Return successfulMatch.Value ' should only be one match, return first
Next
Return ""
End Function
