Is there any way to get asp to stop rounding automatically? I know i can do a formatnumber(1.22, 2) so that it has the correct number of decimal places, but I don't want to have to write a format number for every single number in my code. Aside from anything else, I don't want my 2's to display as 2.00 just so 1.22 displays as 1.22 instead of 1. Its also a bit of a pain in the neck when i'm trying to work with a db that has decimal values galore.

ASP doesn't round automatically. If sounds like you you have a number conversion porblem with doubles changes to integer values.

Try making a custom sub like this:
Sub rInt(iNumber,iDecs)
'Check if the number is a Whole Number or a Decimal
If FormatNumber(iNumber,iDecs) >
FormatNumber(iNumber,0) AND FormatNumber(iNumber,iDecs) <
(FormatNumber(iNumber,0)+1) Then
rInt = FormatNumber(iNumber,iDecs)
Else
rInt = Fix(iNumber)
End If
End Sub
|
Then all you have to do is call it by using it like: rInt(1.22,2)
There for rInt(2.00000,2) and rInt(2.000011,2) would give out 2
But rInt(2.0109,2) would give out 2.01 because 2 decimal places back is
a nonZero number. Respectively, rInt(2.000312,4) would give 2.0003.

So Sayith the Demon.
