Answer 1

dbNumber.ToString("N2")

where dbNumber is the variable to convert.

Sample Code:

Dim bigNumber As Decimal = 1234567.123456
Console.WriteLine("F2: " & bigNumber.ToString("F2"))
Console.WriteLine("N2: " & bigNumber.ToString("N2"))

Output:

F2: 1234567.12
N2: 1,234,567.12

Answer 3

There is a good chance that you want to display currency, so do this:

1000m.ToString("C"); // Will show $1000.00, $1000,00 etc depending on culture
// OR just
1000m.ToString("N2"); 1000m.ToString("F2"); // For plain numbers: 1000.00, 1000,00

decimal ab = 50;
            ab.ToString("####0.00");
