FormatCurrency Function Question

Recommended Posts

I'm new to this, so please bear with me. I'm trying to use the FormatCurrency Function to format a number located in a SQL Server 2k DB table. But I'm having a problem in defining the rules for the number. Basically, the number in the DB is "180792" (without quotes), and I want it transfered to "$1807.92". But my setup of this method is returning "$180,792".Here's more details on what I'm using, and what I'm trying to do:ORIGINAL DB VALUE:180792CURRENT CODE:Dim strNumber As String = Trim(rsQuery("Number").Value.ToString)strNumber = (FormatCurrency(strNumber,0))CURRENT RESULT:$180,792WANTED RESULT:$1,807.92I hope that someone can help me out with this one. I'm just not sure if this method has too many limitations that I can't use, or if I'm just not adding another few steps. Any and all help is appreciated. Thanks.
