Is there an equivalent to Delphi's FormatFloat() function in C#.NET? I
am using VS2005 and can't find any good resources on this type of
function. Everything leads to a dead end so far.

Thanks for any help.

It would be helpful if you'd say what FormatFloat does in Delphi, so
that your question isn't restricted to those who know Delphi...

However, if it's a case of formatting a floating point number, you just
call ToString on it and give it a format string - or include it in a
normal format string. For instance:

float f = 1.234567f;

string x = f.ToString ("#.##"); // x="1.23"

// x="My value is 1.234567"
x = string.Format ("My value is {0:G}", f);

Look up "number formatting" in the MSDN index for more information.
