Format A TextBox Using String Method?

Sep 28, 2009

When I run my program, I want my AverageInventoryTextBox to be formatted like $0.00 and my TurnOverTextBox to be 0.00 (2 decimal places)But when I do the strings for the textboxes and run the program, no matter what numbers I put in it just gives me $0.00 and 0.00, it SHOULD be like $13.84 or 7.44 something like that, but it will only give me zero for an answer.

Public Class Form1
Private BeginInventoryInteger, EndInventoryInteger, CostInteger As Decimal

In .NET String.Format Is Accepting Objects Of A Type That Don't Match The Format String

Jul 7, 2011

I have a function that is getting passed a String and a DataRow.The String is a custom formatter. The idea is to do this

String.Format(passed_in_String, DataRow("ColumnINeed"))

The reason this is being done is at this point we have no idea what the column contains.However, if the formatter is "{0:MM/dd/yyyy}" and the DataRow("ColumnINeed") is an integer containing 42, String.Format is returning: MM/dd/yyyy In this situation I need it to throw an exception instead of returning nonsense.Is there anyway to make String.Format throw an exception if the object does not match what the format string is expecting?

Format String To Pass To String.Format That Would "move" The Decimal Point?

Aug 26, 2010

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.

Function - Method Or Routine That Converts Currency String In A Databound Textbox To Decimal And Ignores Empty Strings ""

Jun 12, 2011

As the title says I have a form with many databound textboxes. some of these boxes have data in them and some are empty. I need to add them altogether, so far all of the conversion methods I have tried err out when they run into an empty string, except Val, but then Val won't handle the string with a $ in it. I've tried decimal.parse which handles the $ but not the empty string. So I seem to be in circle that I can't get out of.

Use The ToString Method And A Counter To Concatenate A File Name Into A String Variable From The Image.FromFile Method?

Dec 18, 2010

I have nine pictures that I need to animate -I need to use the ToString method and a counter to concatenate a file name into a string variable from the Image.FromFile method. Once the counter reaches its maximum value, and the last picture is displayed, the counter should be reset to zero or one depending on how the first image file has been name. Also a static counter variable should be incremented in the time routine. what I have so far -- I know what I have to do; however, I just do not know how to code this properly.. Right now I have this going thru a button procedure but it needs to go through a timer.

Asp.net - Decimal.parse Fails For Currency String Created With String.Format?

Apr 5, 2011

I have a field that I display via: String.Format({0:c},amount) This produces the string "$28.28" However, when I try to convert back to a decimal amount, I get an incorrect format exception: amount = Decimal.Parse(amount.Text, NumberStyles.Currency) I also tried it with NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol with the same results. I verified that the value in amount.Text is "$28.28". Am I missing something? Shouldn't these two operations use the same currency symbol and formats?

Reference To The String In The Heap Is Passed Even When You Pass The String ByVal To A Method?

Mar 2, 2011

So strings are reference types right? My understanding is a reference to the string in the heap is passed even when you pass the string ByVal to a method.

String myTestValue = "NotModified";
TestMethod(myTestValue);
System.Diagnostics.Debug.Write(myTestValue); /* myTestValue = "NotModified" WTF? *[code].....

And what is going on under the hood? I would have bet my life that the value would have changed....
