You can either type a "$" next to the label or add it to the Text property.

Rich is on to something. Create a new label and stick it right next to the left of the other label and just have the $ sign be the only text in it.

Solution 2

You can use

<%# Eval("UnitCost", "{0:c}") %>

to format your value to currency format
