Convert any currency string to double

by

I think this should work:

double.Parse(currencyValue, NumberStyles.Currency);

Here you can see more about the NumberStyles.

Edit: In case anyone sees this answer without looking at the other answers/comments, this answer answered the question as written, but storing currency as a double is not a good idea, and it would be better to use decimal instead.
