How to translate number with customed currency symbol to number

zlf
Hi,
Run this code will cause format exception. I think the problem is
induced by using System.Globaliz ation.NumberSty les.Currency since I used
customed currency symbol("My Dollar:").
Please tell me how to modify this block of code.Thanks

Console.WriteLi ne ( NumberValue.ToS tring ( formatString , n ) );

NumberFormatInf o numberFormatInf o = new
System.Globaliz ation.NumberFor matInfo();
numberFormatInf o.CurrencySymbo l = "My Dollar:";
string temp = "My Dollar:234.43";

double ret = double.Parse ( temp ,
System.Globaliz ation.NumberSty les.Currency );

Console.WriteLi ne ( ret );

Hi,
Your problem is that your create the correct NumberFormatInf o but you do not
pass it to the double.Parse so the parsing function uses the system's
default currency format...
Modify the double.Parse call to the following:
double ret = double.Parse (temp, System.Globaliz ation.NumberSty les.Currency,
numberFormatInf o);

Best regards,

I have a field that has been formatted using the vb.net FormatCurrency method. Now, I need to get the amount back into a regular field so I can use it for calculations. Is there an easy way to remove the formatting characters ($,) ? I suppose I could always use the replace function to remove the $ and comma, but I wasn't sure if there was any easier way, i.e. Format(...) TIA, Mark

If I have a currency code like "USD" or "EUR", how do I format a string from a decimal value that would contain the correct currency symbol? for example, if I have "USD" and 345.45, I want to see "$345.45", but if I have "GBP" and 345.45 I want to see "345.45 ". I can see how you can start with a culture like en-US and get the output, but I am starting only from a currency code. thanks.
