NumberDecimalSeparator

[Guest]

Hi,

my application works of course with number and sometimes I need to convert
the real number to string. The internation settings of the device use comma
as numberdecimalseparator but I want to use the point.

How can I set in my application to use the point instead of the comma ? I
would like to set this option just one time at the beginning of the
application and I don't want to use other parameters (culture or something
else) in ToString() function.

In other words is it possible to change the current culture settings ?

Thank you in advance.

Not without restarting your app and even then it is bad form to change the
device's settings just for your app. The recommended way is to use the
overload that takes an IFormatProvider (even though you indicated you don't
want to do that).
