String to decimal conversion: dot separation instead of comma

Question

I have a string read from a textbox. It contains a comma for decimal separation.

I have NumberFormatInfo.CurrencyDecimalSeparator set to ,

Answer 1

Instead of replace we can force culture like

var x = decimal.Parse("18,285", new NumberFormatInfo() { NumberDecimalSeparator = "," });

it will give output 18.285
