convert number (for example 22.00) to 2000 with no decimal

aspkiddy

Amount text box...
the number is positive and this field should be sent as cents ( $22.00 should be sent as 2200 with no decimal).

How can I ?

in my first form page (where there is a textbox/ field )

I use

 private void SetPageState()

        {

         int amountInt = int.Parse(mamountTextBox.Text);

         mFormPageState.AmountContribution = amountInt.ToString("0.00");



        SavePageState();

        }





        public struct FormPageState

        {



        public int amountInt;



        public string AmountContribution;

        }

The user enter, for example, 22

and the second screen, I can display as I want:

22.00 with the following code

 mAmountLabel.Text = s.AmountContribution;

So I must transform this number (for example 22.00) to 2000 with no decimal for sending on the transaction server

How can I ? could you help me please

Accepted answer
That is to be expected. To use globally.
Put
decimal amountD ;
at top of class outside of a method -- search this site for methods so you have a better understanding.
change
decimal amountD = Convert.ToDecimal(s.MontantContribution);//assuming s.MontantContribution is string
to
amountD = Convert.ToDecimal(s.MontantContribution);//assuming s.MontantContribution is string
Make sure s.MontantContribution is not null
I think you need to create an easier learning project to get the basics.

Hi Frogleg,

I think, it's ok.... take me five min for testing

Now I have another Compiler Error Message: CS0103: The name 'amountD' does not exist in the current context (line 175)
