Asp.NET MVC Razor Format Decimal? to #.###,##

Question

I'm currently working on an ASP.NET MVC 4.5 application.

I try to render a property from my model as a correct numeric value:

The property in the ViewModel:

public decimal? Price { get; set; }

the data from the DB looks like this: 99999,99

My desired format would look like this: 99.999,99

In my razor View I use the property like this:

@Model.Price

Unfortunately it looks still like this: 99999.99

Do you know how I can format that decimal? value correctly on my view?

Is there also a solution without using a display template?

Thanks!!!

You can try it, for `EditorFor` I think you should use a template. — Salah Akbari, Jan 29 '18 at 12:48

Try this

decimal value = 99999.99M;
string display = value.ToString("N2", CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("es"));

Displays

99.999,99

I have tried all the values below:

"C" is used for displaying currency in your culture

"C2" currency with two digits after decimal point

"C2", culture: I'm using a culture which decimal point is comma

"N2", culture: Because I want to show only number, without currency symbol
