The way I would do it is not to use a TextBox - use a NumericUpDown control instead.
In addition to already supporting only numeric input, and doing the conversion for you, it also supports localised numeric formats with the ThousandsSeparator property.

BTW: ',' is not a "colon" - it is a "comma".
':' is a "colon"

Drop it on!
Set the Maximum and Minimum properties and read the Value property when you need it - it's a Decimal value already.

Hey  MP59402,

Use MaskEditExtender Ajax Control with your TextBox.. Like This

<ajaxtoolkit:maskededitextender xmlns:ajaxtoolkit="#unknown">
    TargetControlID="TextBox2" 
    Mask="9,999,999.99"
    MessageValidatorTip="true" 
    OnFocusCssClass="MaskedEditFocus" 
    OnInvalidCssClass="MaskedEditError"
    MaskType="Number" 
    InputDirection="RightToLeft" 
    AcceptNegative="Left" 
    DisplayMoney="Left"
    ErrorTooltipEnabled="True"/>

</ajaxtoolkit:maskededitextender>

You should use a masked textbox for this.
If this is windows forms it is already part of the package and the documentation of msdn should be sufficient.
In case of WPF it is not part of the default package and you should install an additional one because a free one exists.
