Global currency symbol does not depend on current localization. It depend from Windows Regional Settings.

You need use it in TextFormat property?

Thank you.

No, from what i tested it depends on the localization in my web.config.

My web.config culture is en-GB and the symbols prints out as the UK Pound sign.

Yes, you are right, in web applications currency symbol depends from settings in web.config too.

You can use following code:

Code: Select all

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US", false);

Thank you.
