Ask textbox get numbers...

Hi all


Anyone knows how to convert strings to numbers...

I got this textbox to prompt a user for a number. I use function todouble to convert it to a number but if a user enters 14.5 i get 145 in the variable....


How do i get 14.5 or 14,5 ?
I mean how do i get the right number?


double mynumber= Convert.ToDouble(Txttextbox1.Text);

Doesn't do the job right....

Ty in advance :)

It seems like the Double parser only looks for "," and not ".".

If you enter the value with a "," it works.

So heres a workaround,

Code:

---

                        string myString ="14.5";
                        myString = myString.Replace(".",",");
                        double myNumber = Double.Parse(myString);
                        Console.WriteLine(myNumber.ToString());
                        Console.ReadLine();

Sorry, I dont have an explanation, just if you need a quick workaround,...

HTH, Stephan
