I have an internal process that requires data in a very specific format. Nothing I can do about that. So in my VB.NET program I am trying to output a number with a terminating decimal and nothing after it. I tried
swOut.WriteLine("{0,10:###0.}", var)
But the output is a whole number

What is the cleanest, most readable way to String.Format a decimal with the following criteria
start with a sign symbol (+ or -)
a fixed number of fraction digits
no decimal separator
right aligned
pre-padded with "0"'s
format number to hower many number on left of decimal and 1 decimal without rounding
View 2 Replieshow i can format a number to only show decimal places if needed?For instance...
string.format("{0:SomeFormat}", 26.9) = "26.9"
and...
string.format("{0:SomeFormat}", 26.0) = "26" 'Drop decimal for whole numbers
Is there a format string to format a decimal to 000000000,00. So first 9 digits, right padded with zeros if needed; a comma as fraction separator and two fraction digits.
0 => 00000000,00
12 => 00000012,00
987456,456 => 000987456,46
So something like myDecimal.ToString("D9") together with .ToString("F2").
VB.NET code to change Excel 2007 Column Cell Format from Text to a Number no Decimal.
Right now Column F shows values that look like
3E+13
3E+13
Manually changing it to a Number with No Decimal shows the correct value.

Of course I would like to automate this.

im having trouble understanding this question for a homework assignment. I need to write the PSEUDOCODE for the following scenario, but i got no idea about how to convert a hexadecimal number to a decimal number..You are required to input a two digit hexadecimal number eg. 3f (digits can be entered separately) and calculate the equivalent decimal number. (note the decimal number will be between 0 and 255) . output the decimal number

I'm using Visual Basic .Net 2010 Express.I know, for example, that the Visual Basic ( IEEE 754 ) Internal bit-by-bit Double Format is: Bit 63 = Sign, Bits 62-52 = 11-bit Exponent, and Bits 51-0 = 52-bit Fractional Significand.But, I can't seem to find any documentation on the Internal bit-by-bit Decimal Format.There also don't seem to be any workable mechanisms for accessing the bit structure or copying the bits to another Format for internal processing and returning the result to the Decimal Format.[code]to separate the ULongVariable into bytes for convenient manipulation. A similar reverse process allows moving the manipulated bits back into the Signed Long Variable.But, methods like << and >> are not extendable to Decimals per the Microsoft Documentation ( and I tried them anyway, and confirmed that they don't work ). Nor does there appear to be any way to copy the 128-bit Decimal into two 64-bit Unsigned Long Variables, or vice-versa.
I could, of course, forgo the use of Decimals and define my own MDJDecimal consisting of two ULongs, but that seems a bit of an overkill, and its methods would likely incur significant development time, and would probably also be rather excessively slow and cumbersome.I know I could write a workable routine in Visual C++ .Net using the Unmanaged Native Assembler, but I don't know enough about how to integrate that with Visual Basic .Net code, and I don't want to irrevocably tie what I'm developing to the Intel platform.I might also be able to write it in Managed Visual C++ .Net, but, again, I don't know enough about how to integrate that with Visual Basic .Net.

I'm trying to get my decimals to display with four decimal places. The DB rounds my number to 4 decimal places, but it returns the number with trailing 0s (due to the decimal precision of the field), so something like 9.45670000.[code]...
How do I format my decimal, so that the number of decimal places is always four?
I'm trying to validate an IP address in dot decimal format e.g. 127.55.21.1
System.Net.IPAddress.TryParse(IP, Nothing)
This though returns numbers like "500" or "9" as valid. Why does it do this? Do I have to set the IP address version, if so how would I do this?
format a decimal value to a string with a single digit after the comma/dot and leading spaces for values less than 100?For example, a decimal value of 12.3456 should be output as " 12.3" with single leading space. 10.011 would be " 10.0". 123.123 is "123.1" I'm looking for a solution, that works with standard/custom string formatting, i.e.
decimal value = 12.345456;
Console.Write("{0:magic}", value); // 'magic' would be a fancy pattern.

I am trying to format a textbox so it reset itself to 2 decimal place on leave.
So someone types in 10.899 and when they leave the textbox it will format to 10.90.
I have tried this: Textbox1.Text = String.Format("{0:n2}")
and I get this error:{"Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list."}
So I need a format string to pass to String.Format that would "move" the decimal point.I can't perform any math operations before doing the String.Format, so it has to work right off the bat.Basically I'm emulating a formatting string from a proprietary server. In it if I say:
"MR2"
for the value:
12345
The result is:
123.45
I'm close with this, but it's not spot on:
String.Format("{0:#0.##}", 12345)
an extra, but not necessary... there is also MR2Z, which moves the decimal 2 left, but if the value is 0 "" is returned.
