Android Question NumberFormat does not format the zero value

NumberFormat returns a String, therefore your code should be:

NumberFormat returns a String!
So you should set:
Dim Price As String
In your case the String returned by the NumberFormat function is converted into a Double!
You may also consider NumberFormat2 where you can define MinimumFractions and MaximumFractions.

This worked in formatting the 0 value to display 0.00: (thanx guys)

The above I'm now using.

This did not format the 0 value to a display of 0.00:

The above function arguments are misleading as I'd expect the display format to be a minimum of 1 placing in the integer position (in this case would be a 0) and a minimum of 2 placings in the decimal positions - 00

Is this a bug? Seems to me it may be, or very misleading/confusing.
If it worked, I wouldn't be submitting to the forum for answers. I think it needs to be looked at by the products developers.

Thanx,

It's not a bug. See the documentation on NumberFormat (here). The third parameter is for "maximum" number of fractions, it says nothing about minimum. All 0's are left off. As @klaus mentions, you need to use NumberFormat2. @klaus has this answered in another thread here: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...at2-not-formating-decimals.39354/#post-378164
