Hi, I have a decimal like `0.9876` I want to round this two digits after the point: `0.99` I read about the floor, ceil and round - funktion But no function gives me what I want. Whats the solution? -Lars ---

Whats the solution? -Lars[/quote] [code] dim d as double d=ceil(0.9876\*100)/100 msgbox str(d)[/code] You will need to decide when using Floor and Ceil is necessary. For instance, when the third decimal \> 5 use Ceil, and otherwise use Floor, so 0.9876 gives 0.99 and 0.9846 gives 0.98. ---

lol there’s no ready function? I’ve probably bite the bullet and write my own function 😕 ---

> [@160943:@Lars Lehmann](#): > > lol there’s no ready function? Of course there is: [Round](http://documentation.xojo.com/index.php/Round). But you’ll still have to temporarily “move” the decimal like MIchel does. Or you could use [Format](http://documentation.xojo.com/index.php/Format), but you’ll have to convert it back to a double, if needed : `dim d as double d = Val(Format(0.9876,"#####0,##"))` ---

[quote=161282:@Lars Lehmann]nothing @Michel Bujardet Thanks! I only thought theres a build-in function ;)[/quote] From what I can see, Round [http://documentation.xojo.com/index.php/Round](http://documentation.xojo.com/index.php/Round) is exactly that. Except you cannot decide which kind of rounding you apply. I think in particular about such things as the kind of rounding used for petty cash. ---
