    Hi there,

    I would like to round the following number: 12,999 to 13,000 and I cant find a way, all the round options are decimal rounds.

    anyone has an idea? :hehe:

    thanks!

    Hello,

    The following script will Round 12999 to 13000:-

    Select Round(12999, -1)

    This works for the example that you provided, but what is the underlying rounding algorithm that you need?

    Regards,

    John is correct. To become better familiar with the ROUND function, take a look a Books Online... it has a full description and many examples to help you determine what you actually need.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
