>>>>>>>I have a program that calculates a bunch of dollar figures as well as many whole number counts. Somehow I need the dollar figures to always round down(ie. 98.768 = 98.76), and the whole number counts to round up(55.6 = 56). These calculations are spread throughout the many forms and pages that make up the application. I am hoping for some type of SET option.
