all the number formats available on the system

Sam
Hi,
I've already asked a kind of question like that, but it's a bit
different this time. How can I get all of the supported numeric formats
by Windows? I want to fill a combobox with those formats. (they should
be all of the formats, regardless the regional settings)
Regards

Only in arabic characters or in all kind of characters.

Sam,

I thought that I told it you in extentio. Somewhere I and probably others
don't understand what you want.

The overloaded ToString method should be enough to do your problem.
Although you probably need as well the binding events
(See the samples which are under the links format and parse)

I hope this helps,

I am currently working on an application that is being used mostly in the US but recently has been purchased by several users outside the US, mostly in South America. The application uses an Access 2000 database for storing the data. The problem I am seeing is that when numbers and currency values are entered into the application, the regional settings of the users machine formats the numbers to use their local settings. For example,...

Is scanf or any other function capable of reading numbers in the format 1.2345d-13 where 'd' serves the same role as 'e' usually does in scientific notation? This operation is iterated through several times and we really would like not to have to read it as a string first or anything like that. Thanks -- Vig

Hi I am having trouble trying to format a number string to two decimal places if the number ends in a 0 It formats fine otherwise. For example if PrincRepay is 78.20 it will display it as 78.2 PrincRepay, payment and IntAmt are double PrincRepay = Math.Round(payment - IntAmt,2); PrincRepayStr = PrincRepay.ToString("N2");

Dear All, Recently I created a thread about trying to load a particular ICON image that GDI plus could not load. I realized that GDI plus definitely does not support it because it had a certain resolution that is not in any of its built in format libraries. So my question is this, how would I go about working with images that are not in GDI+ native libraries, such as raw camera files (*.RAW, etc.), Pixar's file format, and plenty of other...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
