js01,

What makes you think posting it as separate topic would get you the answer? bonk

. Either way unless this is a trick question , VAR1 would have 2898. 00 (untested)

Why is this even a question in the first place. Rolling Eyes

Hi,

What happened when you try this at your end? May be if you try the code with or with out ROUNDED you get a better understanding.
