How do you convert a double to a formatted string?

I searched a lot about this problem but the only results I get is with numbers like 5.04 My number is >1 so for example 0.8 number.ToString("F2") is the way I tried but haven't found a format yet that worked. So Do anybody know how to show a double number in a label?

Formatted two decimal places:

String.Format("{0:0.00}", 123.4567);      // "123.46"

String.Format("{0:0.00}", 123.4);         // "123.40"

String.Format("{0:0.00}", 123.0);         // "123.00"

Not sure what you are asking, but what's wrong with:

string formatted = string.Format("{0:F2}",0.8);

It produces 0.80, which I thought is what you were looking for.

Have you tried:

string s = String.Format("{0:0.00}", 0.8);

The article on MSDN may be of help regarding formatting a Decimal number in a variety of formats. Scroll a bit down and view the examples given and their output they would provide.
