Morning folks..
Having a little fun with rounding at the moment... I've made some progress but am running into an issue, purely due to the way that I want the rounding to work..
I have times output in decimal style (due to the originating data source) and need to retain the decimal style..
I need to round up to the nearest (or next, I guess) 0.25 value.. And there's the rub, I ALWAYS want to round up..
The expression I have so far is :
Fix Time: Round(4*(Sum([dbo_ReportData].[Fix Time])),0)/4
Which does do rounding nicely, however, it will round down as well as up (which is correct from a mathematical stand point).. As I said previously, I only want to round up! (well, I don't want to, the people that want this report do!)
Happy to post up the rest of the query if you need it..
Any help gratefully received!
