How to insert a thousand separator (comma) with convert to double

Question

I am trying to format the contents of a text box:

this.lblSearchResults1.Text =     Convert.ToDouble(lblSearchResults1.Text).ToString();  

How do I amend this so that I the text includes comma/thousand separators?

i.e. 1,000 instead of 1000.

Answer 1

Looking at the standard numeric format strings:

You can most easily use 'N' which will do the right thing based on the user culture, so in your case you can just add "N" as a param to the ToString

([double]12345.67).ToString("N") 

12,345.67
