My problem is I am attempting to push 9.991234 AsCurrency into a Money Field. However, I would only like to use the first 2 decimal points, hence 9.99. Can someone guide me on how to eliminate the other digits. Thanks Nik Back to top helmut woess Guest Posted: Wed Mar 08, 2006 8:03 am    Post subject: Re: Working with Currency Am Tue, 7 Mar 2006 23:26:47 -0400 schrieb Nik: Quote: Hi guys, I'm running Delphi 7 along with Microsoft SQL2005 Express Edition.

If you want exactly 2 digits use DECIMAL(9,2) instead. bye, Helmut Back to top John Herbster Guest Posted: Wed Mar 08, 2006 1:03 pm    Post subject: Re: Working with Currency "Nik" <nik (AT) nik (DOT) com> wrote Quote: problem is I am attempting to push 9.991234 AsCurrency into a Money Field.

Can someone guide me ,,, Nik, Since you mention starting with a number like 9.991234, I presume that means a single, double, or extended type var. If that is the case, you should be using something like one of the decimal rounding routines from my Decimal Rounding JH1 module, which is freely available from CodeCentral http://codecentral.borland.com/Item.aspx?id=21909 These routines allow you to select from about 9 different ways to manage the rounding of the extra digits into your two, in preparation for assigning to the field's AsCurrency property.
