I just had a quick question about formating in currency in Visual Basic 2010 express. I already understand how to get it to work during runtime using the FormatCurrency feature, but I am wondering if there is a method to do it so that the user's input becomes currency instantly? (basically, is there a way to make the textbox always display as currency, rather than as a weird decimal?)
View 7 RepliesHow does the VB.NET compiler in this case determine which function is being called?
To me, it seems like it should raise an error because it CAN'T tell (or at least that's what it seems to me.)

I am using a GridView and I need to show the currency in Arabic culture so I used this code which is working very well,
DataFormatString="{0:c}" The results will be like this : د.ك. 55.000 Now what I want is to change it like this : 55.000 K.D ???
I want to format several textboxes so that they would accept a decimal number like 2356.90. Now, let me first describe to you how I designed the designers view.. or rather I am going to attach what I did.
Ok... first the textbox SUM OF THE BILLS i would want to display two decimal point places.. so that when a person clicks the click for sum button, it calculates the sum of the bills and places it in the textbox. I got this code so far...
Code:
Private Sub txtJanuaryBillsSum_TextChanged(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles txtJanuaryBillsSum.TextChanged
txtJanuaryBillsSum.Text = Format(Convert.ToDouble(txtJanuaryBillsSum.Text), "####.##")
[Code]....
Everything was fine and it was running ok but when i added the code for the format of the textbox I suddenly got that error.
got a little problem i just can't get working, i've got a list box that i'm adding numbers to but i want the numbers in the list box to be formated as a currency, i haven't got the number as a txt so can't do it the usual way, txtPay.text = formatCurrency etc i'm adding the items to the list box like this, LstPay.items.Add(dblNet)
View 8 RepliesI have a code that binds the data from the database to textboxes. The problem is I want to make one of the textboxes Payment use a dollar sign.I tried formatting it as shown in the code below but only the first record gets formatted, the rest do not. When I click the next button, the dollar sign disappeared.
Here is a portion of the code:
bs = New BindingSource(ds, ds.Tables(0).TableName)
Me.txtPayment.DataBindings.Add("Text", bs, "Payment")
Me.txtPayment.Text = Format(CType(txtPayment.Text, Decimal), ("c"))
I have tried everything else I know, FormatCurrency but no luck.Payment is the name of the column in the database, the data type in SQL Server is Small Money.
I am trying to create a currency converter that will convert currency. I have a text box to enter the amount and 2 combo boxes to choose which currency you are converting from and to.
I am using a webservice site XML that contains the conversions.
The problem is I cannot get the display to work properly.
I have some VB .NET software that interfaces to a load of old (but sound) COM objects. The VB provides a GUI for the COM objects, part of which consists of setting various options on the COM objects - several of which relate to string formatting.I have a simple pair of VB .NET functions that convert basic %f, %d, %g formats to/from .NET equivalents using a large select case covering specific common strings, but they don't cover all formats.[code]Before I start diving in and making it more versatile with some parsing, does anyone know of a class (eg VB or C# .NET) that provides a decent ready-made implementation? Or perhaps some regexp wizadry could be used?
View 2 RepliesWhile I understand there are properties of MailItem that would allow one to programmatically create a formatted email, I would prefer the ability to copy the body of an email that is already formatted to my liking (bolding, italicizing, embedded pictures/tables, set margins, etc.) copy and paste it to a newly composed email such that this formatting is preserved.
View 4 Repliesthis is more of a confirmation than a question. Need to make sure an already supplied float is treated as a currency value, ie: 123.3 is displayed as 123.30 In VBA you would have just used the CCur() function (yes I am new to VB.net) but I cannot find an equivalent function in VB.net, only the use of the Decimal.ToString() method to do this and for this to work you need to cast the decimal value to 2 floating points using the Decimal.Round method first, ie:
Dim listPrice As Decimal = prow("listprice") listPrice = Decimal.Round(listPrice, 2).ToString("f2")
Just need to know this would be the normal practise in VB.net for achieving my goal.
how do i format the currency value. i have used Format(GrandTotal, "0.00") but i still got output like this 60917.3972. How can i make it to 60917.40
View 7 RepliesWhat code can you use to get the unit in a currency?
For example in 10,340.55 there is:
10 units for a thousand.
3 units for hundreds
4 units of tens.
1 fifty cent
1 five cent.
I want to be able to fetch a currency value from a website (that must be logged into) and display it as well as perform some operators on it. I'm fairly new to VB.Net so I'm having trouble figuring it out.
