Subject: convert a string into a decimal

I am a new Ruby programmer. I am really amazed with the ease of
programming.

I seem not to be able to find a solution for the following task.

I want to convert an object with the class string into a object with the
class fixnum or decimal. So I can store the result in a Decimal(13,2)
sql field.


The value of the object string is "100,000,000.00" (including the comma
and the decimal point.

Appreciate all the help at for hand!

Ernst
