If the currency formatting gives you exactly what you want, clone a NumberFormatInfo
with and set the CurrencySymbol
property to “”. You should check that it handles negative numbers in the way that you want as well, of course.
For example:
using System;
using System.Globalization;
class Test
{
static void Main()
{
NumberFormatInfo nfi = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.NumberFormat;
nfi = (NumberFormatInfo) nfi.Clone();
Console.WriteLine(string.Format(nfi, "{0:c}", 123.45m));
nfi.CurrencySymbol = "";
Console.WriteLine(string.Format(nfi, "{0:c}", 123.45m));
}
}
The other option is to use a custom numeric format string of course – it depends whether you really want to mirror exactly how a currency would look, just without the symbol, or control the exact positioning of digits.
