String.Format an integer to use a thousands separator with decimal value in danish culture

asp.net, c#

Solution

You can refer to Standard Numeric Format Strings and use

string.Format("{0:N2}", 1234.56)

You may also specify the culture manually, if danish is not your default culture:

var danishCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("da-DK");
string.Format(danishCulture, "{0:N2}", 1234.56);

see MSDN Reference for CultureInfo

Problem

I have a string `totalPRice` which holds a value like this `1147,5` I want two things. 1)round the value so that there is always two digits after `,` 2)Implement thousands separator in this string, So that final out put will be some thing like this `1.147,50` I have tried some thing like this ``` String.Format("{0:0.00}", totalPRice) ``` It does my first requirement correctly by producing an output `1147,50`. But I am way behind in my second requirement. Can any one tell me how I can achieve this? Note: In danish culture `.` stands for `,` and `,` stands for `.`
