Is it possible to pass in a bool variable into an overridden toString() method, so it can conditionally print the object in different formats?

    No. An overriding method must have the same signature as the method it's overriding. This means that it can't have any more parameters, since that would change the signature. I would just make a new method for the other format you want.

    If you are talking about your own class, you could do the following:

    public class MyClass
    {
        public bool Flag { get; set; }
    
        public MyClass()
        {
            Flag = false;
        }
    
        public override string ToString()
        {
            if (Flag)
            {
                return "Ok";
            }
            else
            {
                return "Bad";
            }
        }
    }
    

    And use it

    MyClass c = new MyClass();
    Console.WriteLine(c); //Bad
    c.Flag = true;
    Console.WriteLine(c); //Ok
    Console.ReadLine();
    

    Your Flag could be some private field and change its value, depending on some inner conditions. It's all up to you.

    The typical pattern for parametrized ToString() is to declare an overload with a string parameter.

    Example:

    class Foo
    {
        public string ToString(string format)
        {
            //change behavior based on format
        }
    }
    

    For a framework example see Guid.ToString

    You can define overload method of ToString().

    public string ToString(bool status){
      //
    }
