I am trying to get a column in a GridView to format like:
$33.00. I am putting the following into the DataStringFormat;
${0:#,##0.00} and it still won't produce zero's after the decimal.

If the value is $3 I want it to show $3.00.

Any thoughts?

Hi Chris,

Besides the DataFormatString, you also need to set the column's HtmlEncode property to false, like this:

<asp:BoundField DataField="Price" HeaderText="Price"
    HtmlEncode="false" SortExpression="Price"
    DataFormatString="{0:c}"
>
