Show Currency

thesti

hello,

i have a textbox for product price that the user will be able to enter some number and also a column in a datagridview to show the same price too,

is it possible to show the thousands separator as a user types in. like when a user types 1000, it will be shown as 1,000. and if it possible, when i get the value in the textbox, can i convert it to an integer?

thank you

In order to convert a value to an integer you can do two things
you can use this

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

X=Convert.ToInt32(textBox.Text);

or this

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

X=Int32.Parse(textBox.Text) ;

You can do something like this for the thousandths place...

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 private void textBox1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            if (textBox1.TextLength == 4)

            {

                textBox1.Text = textBox1.Text.Insert(1, ",");
 
            }
 
        }

But after it inserts the text it brings the cursor to the beginning of the textbox. :( Why not have a button and parse the text and then you can convert it to an integer within that function too.
