   [RESOLVED] Convert double to string WITHOUT scientific notation?

   I am trying to convert a double to a string without VB automatically converting the double to scientific notation. For example, when "0.0000101" is converted to a string, the string is equal to "1.01E-06". I have spent most of the afternoon trying to find out how to do this conversion and I can't. Help!! Thanks in advance, Jason

   Re: Convert double to string WITHOUT scientific notation?

   This is a round-about way. But it looks like it works. Convert the number to a decimal (or better yet, if you can just use a decimal instead of double), and call ToString on that. VB Code:

   1. Dim num As Double = 0.0000101
   2. Messagebox.Show(Cdec(num).ToString)
