NumberFormatInfo and Custom Numeric Format Strings
 

Does anyone know how to initialize a NumberFormatInfo instance with a custom
numeric format string?

So instead of directly using the custom numeric format string

double dVal = 19.95;
string strVal = dVal .ToString("$#,##0.00");
// - strVal is $19.95

I would like to first initialize the NumberFormatInfo instance:

NumberFormatInfo mobjNumFormat = NumberFormatInfo.CurrentInfo.Clone();
mobjNumFormat.InitWithCustomFormat("$#,##0.00");
string strVal = dVal.ToString("C",mobjNumFormat))

Cheers, Ralf
