Can anyone tell me how I can remove a few zero's from the end of a double?

For example, the number I have is 55.0000, the number I need is 55.00.

How can I go about trimming the zeros?

Thanks,

Ron

Try something like this:
MyDouble.ToString("C")

Dim dblValue As Double = 55.0000

Convert.ToDecimal(dblValue)

or

FormatNumber(dblValue, 2)

The second parameter specifies the number of digits to the right of the
decimal place that should be displayed.
