Exclude Non-Numeric Problem

Question

string s= oElement2.InnerText;
string nonNumericValue = string.Concat(s.Where(a => !Char.IsDigit(a)));
double dblPrice = Convert.ToDouble(s); I am parsing a webpage and the result "1,500
In Stock" crashes my application. I am trying to exclude all the nonnumeric characters. Is this Lambda Expression incorrect ? thank you in Advance.

Hi,   It will crash for non numeric values because you are using    Convert.ToDouble(s)   try using Double.Parse or Double.TryParse   Hope it will help you..
