The format parameter can be any valid standard numeric format specifier, or any combination of custom numeric format specifiers. If format is equal to String.Empty or is Nothing, the return value of the current SByte object is formatted with the general format specifier ("G"). If format is any other value, the method throws a FormatException.
The format of the returned string is determined by the NumberFormatInfo object for the current culture. Depending on the format parameter, this object controls symbols such as the negative sign, the group separator, and the decimal point symbol in the output string. To provide formatting information for cultures other than the current culture, call the ToString(String, IFormatProvider) overload.
The following example initializes an array of SByte values and displays them by using each standard format string and some custom format strings.
