how to display amount with currency format in mvc3

Question

I have created a table for tax ranges. Now I want to display the amounts formatted like so: $100,000. How can I do this?

Answer 1

You could try this format, and replace amount with custom value.

@string.Format("{0:C}", amount); 

Answer 2

You could add this in your model, the currency symbol will be displayed anytime you reference that field

[DisplayFormat(DataFormatString = "{0:C}", ApplyFormatInEditMode = true)]     public decimal DebitAmount { get; set; }
