Question

I have a decimal in .NET and I need to store it to a column in a typed dataset that is a string. I need the decimal to be stored to two decimal places. Even though I use Math.Round(value,2) and I do a ToString(), it doesnt work.

Any ideas and suggestions are appreciated!

Answer 1

You need to do decimalVar.ToString ("#.##");

or

decimal value = 1.2345;
string rounded = value.ToString("d2");
