!!!!new question below!!!!!

Hey, I need some help, I'm doing some calculations in ASP, but in the output i get numbers like 4,56767651221 etc.

What I need the output to be in this case would be simply 4, so basicly i need to remove all numbers that appear behind the comma from my formula results.

What command do I have to use for that?

TIA.

strNumber = "4,3248096432"
intCommaPosition = inStr(strNumber,",")
strNumber = left(strNumber,intCommaPosition)

thanx, another question i could use help with...

Is it possible to calculate dates, so for instance if i have a date value in my database and take the current date with now() both in the same format (like this: 8-7-2003 15:08:47).

so basicly if the database has value 8-7-2003 15:08:47 the current time is 8-7-2003 15:12:49 i would need it to output 04:02 or just 04 would do actually.

I've been trying to get it to work, but for some reason it won't

Assuming the comma is the decimal delineator, then you can you either the FIX or of the INT function depending upon whether or not you want the number rounded.
