I have a string, that could look like "123,34", "123123,09", "1234", "123.34", "123123.09"
(Stringrepresentation of 10,2 decimal that will be stored into a MySql DB)
Due to the culture of the ASP.net thread may differ, because my application supports localization, I need to find a safe way to convert the most likely user input into a decimal.
How is that possible?
I tried various Decimal.Parse attemps, that all failed so far.
Solution:
My final solution was a mixed one. I used string replace to ensure my date is formatted into the specified CultureInfo I used for parsing
When running our web application the following message appears:
Failed to convert parameter value string to decimal. We believe that the problem might be with the sequence which generates the user_id. The user_id should be the output after successful insert of record. The stored procedure works well from within the DB and Visual Studio. Our DB version: 11gR1 on Windows.The web form has a button event with this c#-code:
i have a strange error creaping into my web app but am unsure as to how to fix it. When i run this code on my debug workstation it works fine but when i transfer it to my server things seam to go wrong.
dev station (windows 7) + VS2010 regional and language settings all set to uk server (windows 2008r2) regional and language settings all set to uk
What seams to be happening is that when converting a string to a double it works correctly on the dev environment but moves the decimal place to the end on the server.
example code(vb) dim lat as string = "52.983829" dim long as string = "-0.036500" dim latint as double = lat dim longint as double = long
now on the dev server the value of latint is 52.983829 as you might expect but on when published to the server it becomes 52983829.0 the same with longint on the dev staion it is -0.036500 but on the server it becomes -36500.0 i get equally confusing problems if i try to change it to an integer instead.
on VWD 2005 this code works fine, but on 2008 it says I haven't created an instance of the object. I want to convert the object connString (a connection string) into a string.
'This acceses the virtual directory web.config file for connection strings 'We have to convert the object to a connection string Dim rootWebConfig As System.Configuration.Configuration rootWebConfig = System.Web.Configuration.WebConfigurationManager.OpenWebConfiguration("/VirtualDirec") Dim connString As System.Configuration.ConnectionStringSettings connString = rootWebConfig.ConnectionStrings.ConnectionStrings("ConnectString1") Dim strConnString As String = connString.ToString().......
I have project in development where string operations like "Hi " + variable + ", welcome to Project" are used at many places (given example is very minor one).
One of the requirement is to convert it to string.format style.
It is very long and tedious job, where I would not like to break earlier working code due to any human error might happen while converting it.
I would like to if any Macro or VS command which I can create to handle it. Just like we mark block of code and do Extract function in Re-factor options.
If I have a string/integer that looks like 123, how can I convert that to look like 12.3?Basically what I need is something faster (if possible) than thisMath.Round(Double.Parse(input / 1000), 1).ToString
Just to be forward, my .net and c# expierence is very limited, that one could say I'm a complete noob :) However I do have some grasp on OOP as I usually work in PHP (FWIW). My problem seems to be with this line:
From what I've gathered, I'm suffering from some kind of type casting problem? Hopefully I haven't missed anything, its a bit difficult to show all the code but hopefully someone can point me in the right direction? Question is; how can I get an extra decimal place to show up on my sum (or why is it dropping the last decimal place?).
i have a repeater item that displays a double. occasionally the double seems to be coming out with 3 decimal places like this 1165.833. im trying to force it to two decimal places by wrapping it in a string.format method but it still comes out the same:
I have a field in my products table called dProductPrice which is a datatype of money. In my datalist i need to display the field as currently it shows price as e,g, 1.3500 but i need it to 2 decimal places so it is 1.35? in my datalist i have done this using the format as well
i am displaying some news from rss feeds in the page. But i am stuck up in the date time conversion. I got th published datetime as pdt formated string. How can i convert to my local time. Coversion from the pdt string tot DateTime is error..
[Code]....
This second line is error and i need the result in the specified format or same format as in the published date but in local time ie IST (India Standard Time)
I read a CSV file into a DataTable.The DataTable in the first image shows each column and type.The types are exactly what they are supposed to be and the data loaded all the rows it was supposed to load.From the second screen shot you can see the database table. SqlBulkCopy is supposed to map column names to database columns by default.According to that logic each column matches up exactly to the database and the column types also match.However,when I run the command it errors on the first row with:
"The given value of type String from the data source cannot be converted to type decimal of the specified target column."
Here is the StackTrace:
"at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlBulkCopy.ConvertValue(Object value, _SqlMetaData metadata) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlBulkCopy.WriteToServerInternal() at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlBulkCopy.WriteRowSourceToServer(Int32 columnCount) at

Anyone have any ideas why this will not import correctly?
I am trying to retrieve xml from a small function in my .cshtml page. Its throwing me an error. This however, runs fine in a console/form environment. It takes 3 parameters and 1 exception.
[Code]....
Within my GetXML function it simply applies the parameters to a store procedure. The store procedure returns me my object. From there I can do all the fun stuff in .cshtml. When I manually enter the values from within SQL Management Studio, I do in fact get the right result. Again, when I create a Window Form application - I too get the right result! When it comes down to .cshtml or .aspx pages - I get the conversion failed. I have already tried casting the store procedure uniqueidentifier parameter and it still gave me that error.
