Hi,

Can you try it this way:

C#

float Amount = float.Parse(Request.QueryString["Amount"].ToString(), System.Globalization.NumberStyles.Float);

But in case, the value is too large, like
Use it this way:

C#

double Amount = double.Parse("1.111111E+07", System.Globalization.NumberStyles.Float);

Regards,
Praneet

I'd be tempted to replace this

float Amount = float.Parse(Request.QueryString["Amount"].ToString());

with

float Amount = float.Parse(Request.QueryString["Amount"].ToString(), System.Globalization.NumberStyles.Float);

to start with - but be aware, that's likely to fail if the current culture's decimal point separator isn't '.' - so you might need to use this form below instead

float Amount = float.Parse(Request.QueryString["Amount"].ToString(),System.Globalization.NumberStyles.Float, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

[edit] btw, giving us the error message might also have been useful [/edit]
