Formatting currency in .NET

Question

I am formatting the currency using Tostring() method i m using following syntax

ToString('##.##') it is working perfectly but in case of round number it remove last 2 zero

like for 100 it does not show 100.00 is shows 100.

how can i format in that way means input desired output 100 100.00 100.10 100.10

Answer 1

This might help. Might be more than you need, but it takes globalization into account which might be necessary. "C" is also a short-cut currency format string that might get you further along.

Answer 2

Also, if you don't want the currency sign ($ in the US) added that "C" gives, you can also use "F2", which is "fixed number with 2 decimal places". It also has the advantage of giving you a thousands separator when you results go over 1,000.00.

Answer 3

You can use :

.ToString("C")

Hope it helps.

Answer 4

First google result.

String.Format("{0:C}", x.ToString());

Answer 5

Try "##.00" instead.

That will force two digits after the decimal separator.

You can also use ToString("C") to use the culture specific format in Windows directly.
