Hi all

Below is the code i am using to print data in a text file

C#

sr.WriteLine(i.ToString() + Strings.Space(3 - Strings.Len(i.ToString())) + String.Format("{0,-6:dd MMM yyyy}", ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][1]) + Strings.Space(13 - Strings.Len(String.Format("{0,-6:dd MMM yyyy}", ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][1]))) + Strings.Mid(per.ToString(), 1, 25) + Strings.Space(((35 - Strings.Mid(per.ToString(), 1, 25).Length))) + ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][3].ToString() + Strings.Space(12 - Strings.Len(ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][3].ToString())) + Strings.Space(12 - Strings.Len(ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][5].ToString())) + ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][5].ToString() + Strings.Space(12 - Strings.Len(ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][6].ToString())) + ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][6].ToString() + Strings.Space(12 - Strings.Len(ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][7].ToString())) + ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][7].ToString());

Here ds.Tables[0].Rows[i][6].ToString()is a data with value like 1000.0000, datatype is money.
i want to trim the last two 0's in this.

Please tell me how to do that.

C#

string.Format("{0:0.##}", 256.583); // "256.58"
string.Format("{0:0.##}", 256.586); // "256.59"
string.Format("{0:0.##}", 256.58);  // "256.58"
string.Format("{0:0.##}", 256.5);   // "256.5"
string.Format("{0:0.##}", 256.0);   // "256"
