edtbaycost.text = allparkingbayregistrationdata(currentdisplayrecord).baycost.tostring("000000.00"); 

in box displays eg. r 001234.56 have tried replacing tostring("000000.00") tostring("######.00") decimal value ignored , display r 123456.00.

edit:

you may use currency format specifier culture code. should give appropriate formatting currency attempting use:

edtbaycost.text = allparkingbayregistrationdata(currentdisplayrecord).baycost.tostring("c3",                cultureinfo.createspecificculture("en-za")); 

you can use table reference culture codes: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee825488(v=cs.20).aspx
