Formating numbers

[cmdolcet69]

Im having this problem with Formatting numbers.......In any case I
declare a variable intvalue as double....when i look at what values
are being written out in the text file i see two different values.the
first value is 0.01 and the second value is 0.0099999998 how can I
format the number to 2 decimal places???

How do you convert the number to a String? If you don't do it on your own
(by passing it to a method that does the conversion), do it now:
value.ToString("0.00")

The documentation contains chapters about this once again:

Use decimal instead of double as double is a math value.
