Hi All,

Figure there is a simple solution to this problem but I have been unable to find it.

I have databinding in an ASP.Net application to a GridView. This gridview is bound to an ObjectDataSource as per standard usage.

The problem I have is that one of my bound fields uses the property DataFormatString="{0:C}" and due to the currency format being displayed when an update is attempted and the object recreated I get a error as such "$13.00 is not a valid value for Decimal."

Clearly this is a result of the column using a FormatString and then attempting to bind it back to a decimal property I have in my object called UnitPrice.

I am assuming there is some markup I can set that can specify how the value is translated back?

Thanks in advance for any help.
