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 need to give comma(,) for every thousends. So I used DataFormatString="${0:#,#}". It is working fine. But when value is 0. It is showing $00. I just want to show only $0.
How can we do that?

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 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 was thinking about creating a custom control (a Textbox) but still i need to have a the above format in the textbox!

I am practicing for my next semester, trying to get ahead in VB.Net, so I got a library book and I am attempting the book exercises, in this exercise I need to replace the currency format to the To.String format, but everythiing I try doesnt work, and everything I read online just confuses me more, can anyone shed light on why my code is not outputting my discount amount and my total amount?
Dim subtotal As Decimal = Decimal.Parse(txtSubtotal.Text)
Dim discountPercent As Decimal = 0.25D
Dim discountAmount As Decimal = Math.Round(subtotal * discountPercent, 2)
Dim invoiceTotal As Decimal = Math.Round(subtotal - discountAmount, 2)

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?

Regardless of regional settings I still get this issue in my .NET 2.0 windows application. The application interacts with a SQL Server database, but this formatting is a .NET functionality so I believe it is .NET 2.0 related.
The applications use of this functionality has not changed in over a year, so why does it suddenly not work?Also, Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.NumberFormat.CurrencySymbol returns "¤"

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?

Does anyone know how to set the maskedtextbox to a currency format that actually works? I have set the mask to $999,999.00 but the user input looks like this 120,0 instead of this 12.00. It seems like the maskedtextbox would be able to handle this type of input without using the keypress events to alter the text.

I am in the process of building an application in Visual Studio 2008/Visual Basic that has a datagrid. One field of the datagrid needs to be formatted as currency and calculate a total for that column. I have the following that is supposed to give the total cost: [Code] I understand the first two lines, since itconnects the DB to the app. The problem I have is that the following lines and how/where I am supposed to handle them. The "DtGrdVwlAlbums.RowCount() - 1" has a line underneath it and is telling me that it is not declared. I do not know what it is supposed to be declared as, and what it connects/relates to.

On a form I have a listbox and a textbox bound to the same dataset. When I click an item on the listbox the information changes on the textbox accordingly. The textbox is bound to a currency value. I have been using the following string to format it.PriceTextBox.Text = result.ToString("C")It works but I am having problem figuring where to put this. I have one under Validating event of the textbox which works fine when the user is entered in the text box.The problem comes when the form first load the Listbox and the first value is display in the text box it is not formatted. I have to select another item on the list before the textbox format works.
