C# - Convert Localized String Into Decimal?
Aug 17, 2010
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

I'm trying to convert a string to decimal but I get this exception:
Exception Details:
Microsoft.CSharp.RuntimeBinder.RuntimeBinderException: 'string' does not contain a definition for 'AsDecimal'
Here is the code:
decimal PriceHT = 0;
var PriceRequest= "SELECT * FROM Price_" + HttpContext.Current.Session["PriceTableId"] ;
foreach (var Price in Database.OpenFile("Base.sdf").Query(PriceRequest)){
PriceHT = PrixceHT + (Price.PT).AsDecimal(); //Price.PT returns a string
}

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.

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:
Session["total"] = dt.Compute("SUM(price)", "").ToString();
which will output a total of say "9.2" where as the price is "9.20" from a few record lines as such:
dt.Rows.Add(strRecord, 9.20, dropDownListDistrict_stepTitle.Text);
thus 9.20 + 9.20 = "18.40", but the page displays "18.4".
The label that displays the total sum is:
<asp:Label ID="labelTotal3" runat="server" Text="0" />
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:
<%# String.Format("{0:f2}",DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "pricerange").ToString())%>

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
<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "dProduct_price", "{0:n2}") %>'
now i have a datatable with a column called cost with datatype decimal.
cartDR["Cost"] = Decimal.Parse(lblProductPrice.Text);
But when i try to populate it i can the input string was not in a correct format. But it works ok if i remove {0:n2}

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?

If I enter the a location of: Latitude = 28 Degrees, 45 Minutes, 12 Seconds Longitude = 81 Degrees, 39 Minutes, 32.4 Seconds. It gets converted into Decimal Degrees format to be stored in the database with the following code:
Coordinates coordinates = new Coordinates();
coordinates.LatitudeDirection = this.radLatNorth.Checked ? Coordinates.Direction.North : Coordinates.Direction.South;
coordinates.LatitudeDegree = this.ConvertDouble(this.txtLatDegree.Text);
coordinates.LatitudeMinute = this.ConvertDouble(this.txtLatMinute.Text);
coordinates.LatitudeSecond = this.ConvertDouble(this.txtLatSecond.Text);
coordinates.LongitudeDirection = radLongEast.Checked ? Coordinates.Direction.East : Coordinates.Direction.West;
coordinates.LongitudeDegree = this.ConvertDouble(this.txtLongDegree.Text);
coordinates.LongitudeMinute = this.ConvertDouble(this.txtLongMinute.Text);
coordinates.LongitudeSecond = this.ConvertDouble(this.txtLongSecond.Text);
//gets the calulated fields of Lat and Long
coordinates.ConvertDegreesMinutesSeconds();
In the above code, ConvertDouble is defined as:
private double ConvertDouble(string value)
{
double newValue = 0;
double.TryParse(value, out newValue);
return newValue;
}
and ConvertDegreesMinutesSeconds is defined as:
public void ConvertDegreesMinutesSeconds()
{
this.Latitude = this.LatitudeDegree + (this.LatitudeMinute / 60) + (this.LatitudeSecond / 3600);
this.Longitude = this.LongitudeDegree + (this.LongitudeMinute / 60) + (this.LongitudeSecond / 3600);
//adds the negative sign
if (LatitudeDirection == Direction.South)
{
this.Latitude = 0 - this.Latitude;
}
else if (LongitudeDirection == Direction.West)
{
this.Longitude = 0 - this.Longitude;
}
}
If I don't make any change to the latitude or longitude and I click Apply Changes which basically does the above calucation again, it generates a different latitude and longitude in the database. This happens every time I go to edit it and don't make a change (I just click Apply Changes and it does the calculation again with a different result). In the above scenario, the new Latitude and Longitude is: Latitude = 28 Degrees, 45 Minutes, 12 Seconds Longitude = 81 Degrees, 40 Minutes, 32.4 Seconds If I do it again, it becomes:
Latitude = 28 Degrees, 45 Minutes, 12 Seconds Longitude = 81 Degrees, 41 Minutes, 32.4 Seconds The other part of this is that when I go into edit, it takes the decimal degrees format of the latitude and longitude and converts it to the degrees minutes seconds format and puts them into their respective textboxes. The code for that is:
public void SetFields()
{
Coordinates coordinateLocation = new Coordinates();
coordinateLocation.Latitude = this.Latitude;
coordinateLocation.Longitude = this.Longitude;
coordinateLocation.ConvertDecimal();
this.radLatNorth.Checked =
coordinateLocation.LatitudeDirection == Coordinates.Direction.North;
this.radLatSouth.Checked = !this.radLatNorth.Checked;
this.txtLatDegree.Text = coordinateLocation.LatitudeDegree.ToString().Replace("-", string.Empty);
this.txtLatMinute.Text = Math.Round(coordinateLocation.LatitudeMinute, 0).ToString().Replace("-", string.Empty);
this.txtLatSecond.Text = Math.Round(coordinateLocation.LatitudeSecond, 2).ToString().Replace("-", string.Empty);
this.radLongEast.Checked =
coordinateLocation.LongitudeDirection == Coordinates.Direction.East;
this.radLongWest.Checked = !this.radLongEast.Checked;
this.txtLongDegree.Text = coordinateLocation.LongitudeDegree.ToString().Replace("-", string.Empty); ;
this.txtLongMinute.Text = Math.Round(coordinateLocation.LongitudeMinute, 0).ToString().Replace("-", string.Empty);
this.txtLongSecond.Text = Math.Round(coordinateLocation.LongitudeSecond, 2).ToString().Replace("-", string.Empty);
}
From the above examples, you can see that the Minute kept increasing by 1, which would indicate why it is generating a different latitude and longitude in decimal degrees in the database, so I guess the problem is more in the above area, but I am not sure where or why it is doing it?
public void ConvertDecimal()
{
this.LatitudeDirection = this.Latitude > 0 ? Direction.North : Direction.South;
this.LatitudeDegree = (int)Math.Truncate(this.Latitude);
if (LatitudeDirection == Direction.South)
{
this.LatitudeDegree = 0 - this.LatitudeDegree;
}
this.LatitudeMinute = (this.Latitude - Math.Truncate(this.Latitude)) * 60;
this.LatitudeSecond = (this.LatitudeMinute - Math.Truncate(this.LatitudeMinute)) * 60;
this.LongitudeDirection = this.Longitude > 0 ? Direction.East : Direction.West;
this.LongitudeDegree = (int)Math.Truncate(this.Longitude);
if (LongitudeDirection == Direction.West)
{
this.LongitudeDegree = 0 - this.LongitudeDegree;
}
this.LongitudeMinute = (this.Longitude - Math.Truncate(this.Longitude)) * 60;
this.LongitudeSecond = (this.LongitudeMinute - Math.Truncate(this.LongitudeMinute)) * 60;
}

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.
