  Hey-
  I actually just did this for a project.
  You basically want to do what everyone else is saying.
  What i did (not saying this is the best way to do it- just what i did):

  1. to get 2 decimal place output (i.e.$34.50 not 34.564565)
  You multiply the number by 100, round it, then divide by a 100

  2. to add commas in, you make it a string, split it at the '.' and from there you loop through the myString[0] that is made(left gobbleygook of decimal), and create a local increment var that loops through the string, counts to 3, adds a comma, reset the increment var, and continue like so ad infinitum until you get to the end of your number string.
