Hi hrabia... Plz. Help -- Currency--!!

[Brijesh81]

Hi hrabia,

Thanks for your response

my original question was-->

I am using the following code to get the Sybol for the currency, while displaying a field containing money related data.

System.Globalization.RegionInfo.CurrentRegion.CurrencySymbol

Now the problem is that it displays the Symbol but it displas the $ symbol for the currency while I need a <YEN> symbol for the Japanese currency.

Is it because of the <Regional Settings> on my machine. I changed regional settings as well but to no help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot.


your Answer:: Try with <globalization> tag and "culture" attribute in web.config


My next Question ::

Thanks a lot for your help.
I introduced the line
culture="en-JP"
in my <Web.Config> like the following. But it didnt work.

<globalization
requestEncoding="utf-8"
responseEncoding="utf-8"
culture="en-JP"
/>

I need the Japanese currency symbol.

Plz. Help...

Thanks a lot...
Brijesh
