Hi,
My DataFormatString doesn't want to format.  I'm not sure what is wrong, I formatted another date field and it also didn't format.  What am I doing wrong?

<radG:GridBoundColumn
   DataField="DepositAmount"
   DataType="System.Decimal"
   HeaderText="Deposit Amount"
   DataFormatString="{0:0,0.00}"
   UniqueName="DepositAmount"
   ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Right" />

The value that come in from the XML file is 1528442.53.  It should be formatted to 1,528,442.53 in the grid column.

All help will be appreciated!!

Thanks
Brendan
