Hello everyone and thanks for your help in advance.  I have an 
application that takes values in via a textbox, then performs 
calculations, and creates an output that should be formatted as 
currency.  My problem is, I do not know how to change the format to a 
currency, rounding to the nearest penny, and formatting with dollar 
signs, commas, and decimals.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  
Thanks.

lblMoney.Text = Format(TextBox1.Text, "$###,###,###,##0.00")

Here you go... vb.net style for use in an aspx page.

Imports System.Globalization.NumberFormatInfo

Public Class ConvertToCurrency
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

    Public myInt As Double = 12.3456
    Public myRoundedInt As Double
    Public myCurrencyValue As String

Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As 
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        myRoundedInt = Math.Round(myInt, 2)
        myCurrencyValue = myInt.ToString("C")
        Response.Write(myCurrencyValue)
    End Sub

End Class

Have a nice day.

Another option is to use the ToString method built in in all .NET objects.

This methods accepts a format specifier, like "C" which will convert a
number to $1,200.00 for example.

Example: 1200.ToString("C") will output =80 1.200,00 at my computer, as the

ToString method is culture aware.

Check out Format Specifiers in the documentation.
