I have a 20 character string that I need to format in a certain way. For instance, here is the raw string:
12345678901234567890
And I need it to look like this:
123-45-6789-01-234-5-67-8-90
It wouldn't bother me if the number was entered into a text box without any dashes, but then before I submit the number to the db I would need to enter the dashes in the correct spots. Can anyone give me an idea of how I can accomplish this?
How do I format a specific string and add dashes inside the string. The output I get from the recordset, for example, is 007275153. I want to format the output as 00-727-5153.

Does anyone have and easy way of modifying the format of a number once pulled from an Access database? In the thread listed above, Access is stripping the 0's in front of my numbers. As a work around I have an If statement that checks to see if the number is < 10 and if so write a 0 before pulling from the recordset. I'm looking for a simpler, one line code instead of the big If statement.
It shows the data but not like in the data table (Access). I would like that the numbers have a 2 digit decimal behind the comma i.e.123.456,30 and negative numbers should be in red and in brackets i.e. (123.456,30) So, the format should be: $#.##0,00;($#.##0,00)[Red] as I have done it in the table - but not in ASP
Where do I have to enter the format in the ASP code? - or - Where do I have to enter the format in the Html code? Is someone able to write me the coding line?

What would be the best way to convert a month number to its corresponding string? I.e, 3 -> 'March'.

I'm reading through a txt file and using split to create an array of values. I need to convert one element in the resulting array from a string to a number.

Am collecting numerical entries from text boxes and converting to numbers using:
F1 = Round(CDbl(Request.Form("amout1")),2) F2 = Round(CDbl(Request.Form("amount2")),2) F3 = Round(CDbl(Request.Form("total")),2) F4 = F1 + F2
If F4 <> F3 Then Session("ErrorMessage") = Session("ErrorMessage") & "- Your control amounts do not tie to the Total Deposit amount.<br>" End if
etc.
Sometimes it works, but other times, although the numbers tie out, the calculated amounts are not coming up as equal. I've written the results (F3 & F4) to the screen and they equal, although the server doesn't think so.
Is this an issue with binary number conversion or something. Should I be using something other than CRnd (Delphi has something like C$ or CCurrency)??
