Formatting Digits

I have a Range predictor for Range Bars that calculates the projected high and low prices correctly, but I don't know how to get it to print a decimal place when the price is a whole number , 731.0 as opposed to 731.

if(showValues)
{
DrawText("HighValue", true, " . " + (Low[0]+(1*TickSize)+ Bars.Period.Value*TickSize), 0, Low[0]+(10*TickSize)+ (Bars.Period.Value*TickSize) , 2, Color.White, new Font("Arial", 9), StringAlignment.Near, Color.White, Color.Black, 10);
}

Perhaps you can use the " .ToString("0.00") " format, as in the following example:

[FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][COLOR=#f3f3f3][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][COLOR=#f3f3f3][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][COLOR=#f3f3f3][COLOR=black]Print[B]([/B]Time[B][[/B]0[B]][/B].ToString[B]() [/B]+[/COLOR][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][COLOR=black][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2]"Closing price with a lot of decimals: "[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2]+Close[B][[/B]0[B]][/B].ToString[B]([/B][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=black][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2]"0.00000000"[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][B][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2]));[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT][/B][/COLOR][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2]
[/SIZE][/FONT][/SIZE][/FONT]

which results in:

17-12-2008 12:45:00Closing price with a lot of decimals: 2434,70000000

( so it's .7000000 instead of .7 ). Off course, such a number of zero's is absurd, so ToString("0.00") woud be more than sufficient.

Thanks!

Thanks, That worked!
