Double to CString Conversion using fcvt

[Charlie Curtis]

Hi All,

CString csRegHrs;
csRegHrs.Empty();

The next line produces the correct value Say 1000 (for 10.00) in csRegHrs.
csRegHrs = fcvt(m_pDSet->m_REGHRS,2,&decimal,&sign);

Can anyone explain to me why this isn't working.
csRegHrs.Format("%0.2lf");
The above line produces 0.00? Instead it should be 10.00?

I have stepped through the code and when I step into the csRegHrs.Format portion of the code it indicates in red text that it is 0.00 instead of 10.00.

I just don't get it. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Charlie

The Format() method of CString takes a format string AND values that have to be formatted.
Try:

csRegHrs.Format("%0.2f", <your_value>);

It's always the simple things that hang you up... That was what I missed I wasn't paying close enough to the format string portion. So I added it and sure enough it works fine now!

Thanks for the help.
