Converting Single to String

[nikel]

Hi, I'm trying to output version of my program. I created a single variable, here's my code:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. private
2.   Ver: Single;
3.   ...
4. procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
5. begin
6.   Ver:=1.30;
7.   try
8.     ShowMessage(FormatFloat('#.##', Ver));
9.   except
10.     on E: Exception do
11.       ShowMessage(E.Message);
12.   end;
13.   ...

This outputs 1,3
How can I convert it to show 1.30?

Use '#.00' or '0.00' as format mask. Note that the first version suppresses a leading zero, i.e. when the number is 0.1 the output string will be '.10'; when you need the leading zero in this case use '0.00' where 0.1 will be shown as '0.10'.

Addition: if you need is a dot as separator, then:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. var
2.   FS: TFormatSettings;
3. begin
4.   FS := DefaultFormatSettings;
5.   FS.DecimalSeparator := '.';
6.   ShowMessage(FormatFloat('0.00', Ver, FS));
