Hello all! I'm having the oddest issue trying to format a numeric
string as currency without decimals. For instance...
strSalary = "120000.56"
strSalary = Format(strSalar y, "$#,##0")
'this one returns "$#,##0" literally, no number
strSalary = Format(strSalar y, "C0")
'this one returns "C0" literally, no number
strSalary = Format(strSalar y, "currency")
'this one actually formats the number as currency, but is has decimal
places! So close, yet so far...
Am I missing something????
Thanks you,
Cory

In order for Format to work the way you want, you must pass in a
numeric type not a string. strSalary = Format(strSalar y, "$#,##0")
'this one returns "$#,##0" literally, no number
Dim dSalary as Decimal = 120000.56
strSalary = Format(strSalar y, "$#,##0")

Thank you! That's exactly what I needed to know. I simply wrapped the
string variable in the CDbl function and it worked perfectly. I'd
thought you could format strings as numbers so long as the characters
were all numeric such as with the "currency" type.
strSalary = Format(CDbl(str Salary), "C0")
Thanks again!

I have had no success using the format function as follows (the two
lines of code run one after the other):
'displays a running total of lblAmtdue.Caption
'contents in txtTotal.Text
txtTotal.Text = lblAmtdue.Caption + Val(txtTotal.Text)
'tries to format contents of txtTotal.Text as currency; doesn't work
txtTotal.Text = Format$(txtTotal.Text, "Currency")

I am new to ASP/VBScript and I am trying to format a texbox when a
user exits it. In Visual Basic you could put the following in the Exit
property of the textbox:
textbox1 = Format(textbox1, "Currency")
Is this possible in ASP/VbScript? Any help appreciated. Please show
code in your reply, especially where to put this code in the asp page?
Thanks.

This should not be an issue, but it is. I'm sure that someone knows

I have a datagrid that will display different datasets, (it runs

I'd like to build one datagrid to handle this datagrid dynamically. I

I have a DataItem in a Template that calls a Function to perform a

So how exactly can I format this to come out as currency? I can NOT format
the output in the function. The function must return a decimal. I've tried

This is a pretty simple issue to solve...but i can't seem to figure it out!!
I want data in some columns to show as currency so I set the format
of a column to currency through code by
myGrid.cols(ColIndex).format = "c
Then I manually add rows to the grid...but when I look at the currency
column, I see that the data is not formatted - it still shows up as a numeric
value without the "$" sign

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
