Solution 1

Hi,

Check this...

Custom Numeric Format String[^]

C#

value = 1234.567890;
Console.WriteLine(value.ToString("0,0.00", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture));
Console.WriteLine(String.Format(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture,
                                "{0:0,0.00}", value));

// Displays 1,234.57

Hope this will help you.

Cheers

sorry Magic Wonder,not working
this is my code
txtNsg.Text = [String].Format(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, "{0:0,0.00}", dtCustomPrice.Rows(0)("curNSG").ToString())

But Magic Wonder this one is working ,is right ?

txtNsg.Text = Decimal.Round(dtCustomPrice.Rows(0)("curNSG").ToString(), 2, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero)

Solution 2

C#

String.Format("{0:0.00}", 300.0000); // and our String.Format() will return "300.00"

According to the MSDN documentation, it matches to your requirements.
If it is giving you your output, then you can use it.

Solution 3

As I can see you are not converting DB value to Numeric format. With object type you can't apply string format. You can use it in following way -

C#

if(dtCustomPrice.Rows[0]["curNDB"]!= DbNull.Value)
{
  txtNdb.Text = Convert.ToDecimal(dtCustomPrice.Rows[0]["curNDB"]).ToString("##.00");
}
