Formatting a returned value of type Decimal
Hi
I have a GetTotal method which is of Return Type Decimal.
When I request the Return Value of this method like so
decimal amount = GetTotal();
I get a numeric value as expected eg 30.
What I need to do is assign the return value\result of the amount variable in order to set a PayPal variable. However the format needs to be exact for it to work.
I was looking at using either the {0:F2} to format the decimal (as PayPal requires the "0.00" format) and then use concatenation like so:-
"&paypalamount=" + String.Format("{0:F2}", amount);
I wondered if this looks right as it doesnt appear to work?
Thanks
Steven
