Hi,
How Do I Format a Decimal to 2 places of decimal in VB.Net
Currentl I am doing variablename.tostring("n").
But i want to keep it as a decimal variable

What do you mean by "keep it"? Keep it for what? Do you mean you want to retain the data type and round it to 2 decimal places?

When you use variablename.tostring("n") your variable is still as decimal but here .NET creates a new string variable according to your decimal variable and your format.
