Question : How to convert an XML input field for a C# console application to a deciamal value for a fixed length field with leading zeros?

I am writing my first C# console application using Visual Studio 2005. Do you know how I could rewrite the following C# code "IF statement" so that the amount field is displayed as a numeric value with an explicit decimal point?

An example of one of my daily input files is as follows:

Assuming the input amount field has the following dollar value with an implicit decimal and the output should contain leading zeros with an explicit decimal point and has a field length of 10,
how would you revise the following IF statement?

if (reader.Name == "csc:amount")
{
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CheckAmount");
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString());

Input field: <csc:amount>0000000100</csc:amount>

Output fields: GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CheckAmount
GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:0000001.00

My program is as follows:

using System;
using System.Xml;
using System.IO;
namespace ReadXml1
{
class Class1
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int i = 0;
string[,] arr1 = new string[1000,19];
int iCheckNumber = 0;

XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader("C:\\rbc.xml");

StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter("C:\\output.txt");

while (reader.Read())

{
if (reader.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Element)
{
if (reader.Name == "csc:check_number")
{
iCheckNumber = iCheckNumber + 1;
//sw.WriteLine("COMMENT: CHECK NUMBER # {0}", iCheckNumber);
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CheckNumber");
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString());
arr1[i,0] = "COMMENT: CHECK NUMBER #" + iCheckNumber;
arr1[i,1] = "GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CheckNumber";
arr1[i,2] = "GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
}
if (reader.Name == "csc:routing_transit")
{
arr1[i,3] = "GROUP_FIELD_NAME:RoutingTransit";
arr1[i,4] = "GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
arr1[i,5] = "GROUP_FIELD_NAME:BankName";
arr1[i,6] = "GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:RBC BANK";

}
if (reader.Name == "csc:account_number")
{
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_NAME:BankAccountNo");
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString());
arr1[i,7] = "GROUP_FIELD_NAME:BankAccountNo";
arr1[i,8] = "GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
}
if (reader.Name == "csc:amount")
{
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CheckAmount");
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString());
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CpscNo");
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:00000000");
arr1[i,9] = "GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CheckAmount";
arr1[i,10] = "GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
arr1[i,11] = "GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CpscNo";
arr1[i,12] = "GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:00000000";
}
if (reader.Name == "csc:processing_date")
{
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CheckPaidDate");
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString());
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_NAME:OfficeNo");
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:000");
arr1[i,13] = "GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CheckPaidDate";
arr1[i,14] = "GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
arr1[i,15] = "GROUP_FIELD_NAME:OfficeNo";
arr1[i,16] = "GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:000";
}
if (reader.Name == "csc:image_offset")
{
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_OFFSET:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString());
arr1[i,17] = "GROUP_OFFSET:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
}
if (reader.Name == "csc:image_length")
{
//sw.WriteLine("GROUP_LENGTH:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString());
arr1[i,18] = "GROUP_LENGTH:" + reader.ReadElementContentAsString();
i++;
}
}
}

for (int iter = 0; iter < i; iter++)
{
for (int j = 0; j < 19; j++)
{
sw.WriteLine(arr1[iter,j]);
}
}
sw.Close();
reader.Close();
}
}
}

My output file would look like the following:

COMMENT: CHECK NUMBER #1
GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CheckNumber
GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:000000000000001
GROUP_FIELD_NAME:RoutingTransit
GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:000000007

GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CpscNo
GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:00000000
GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CheckPaidDate
GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:20100805
GROUP_FIELD_NAME:OfficeNo

Answer : How to convert an XML input field for a C# console application to a deciamal value for a fixed length field with leading zeros?

You can make the above logic as a method and just pass the input value to the method.
arr1[i,9] = "GROUP_FIELD_NAME:CheckAmount";
arr1[i,10] = "GROUP_FIELD_VALUE:" + GetFormattedValue(reader.ReadElementContentAsString());
private string GetFormattedValue(string strVal)
{
return strVal.Substring(0, strVal.Length - 2) + "." + strVal.Substring(strVal.Length - 2);
}
