    Hi All,

    Would like to round number to lower bound instead of upper bound in SQL.

    Example: round(xxx.555,2) is retruning xxx.56. I want get result as xxx.55.

    Thanks in Advance.

    Look at the function FLOOR()

    Thank you for your quick response.

    Floor will give me the lowe bound with out decimals.

    I want the lower bound in decimal part.

    Would like to see 113.555 as 113.55 instead of 113.56.

    FLOOR(113.555 * 100) / 100

    Please lookup the 3rd operand of ROUND in Books Online. It's one of those things that people read about and forget.

    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.
