根据国家/地区更改货币格式 select

Question

I have a dropdownlist of all countries. I want to be able to display a certain amount in currency format based on the country selected by user. Currently I'm just using amount.ToString("C") and it just displays the dollar sign. But what the user selects a european country then it should be able to display in Euro format? Is there any way to achieve this in c# on the dropdownlist selectedindexchanged event perhaps?

Help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

Adapted from Formatting Numeric Data for a Specific Culture :

CultureInfo info;
if (country == "Poland")
{
  info = new CultureInfo("pl-PL");
}
else if (country == "England")
{
  info = new CultureInfo("en-GB");
}
else
{
  info = new CultureInfo("en-US");
}
Console.WriteLine((1.23).ToString("c", info));

Answer 2

decimal price = 123.45m;
int discount = 50;
Console.WriteLine($"Price: {price:C} (Save {discount:C})");
