Hi everybody,

I are format the amount for the balance whit this code:

double AccountBalance      = DoubleToString(AccountInfoDouble(ACCOUNT_BALANCE),2);

Whit this var i get for example "140.56" and its fine, but if the amount is 1590785.90 i get "1590785.90". How i can get "1,590,785.90"?

Thank u very much, i'm starting in mql5 :)

double AccountBalance      = DoubleToString(AccountInfoDouble(ACCOUNT_BALANCE),2);

You are assigning a string value to a double variable

This is a 1000 separator you want to have. I think a direct solution doesn't exist, but you are not the first to ask for this. Search for it in the forum.

Thank u!, i locate the next function and all works fine.

template<typename T>
string NumberToString(T number,int digits = 0,string sep=",")
   {
      CString num_str;
      string prepend       = number<0?"-":"";
      number               = number<0?-number:number;
      int decimal_index    = -1;
      if(typename(number)=="double" || typename(number)=="float")
         {
            num_str.Assign(DoubleToString((double)number,digits));
            decimal_index  = num_str.Find(0,".");
         }
      else
         {
            num_str.Assign(string(number));
         }
      int len              = (int)num_str.Len();
      decimal_index        = decimal_index > 0 ? decimal_index : len; 
      int res              = len - (len - decimal_index);
      for(int i = res-3;i>0;i-=3)
         {
            num_str.Insert(i,sep);
         }
      return prepend+num_str.Str();
   }
