I seem to have written some code and despite it meaning to be exact i seem to be getting ridiculous number co ordinates i.e. instead of 0 i get 1.2E83423 etc....
is there anyway of rounding this number to the nearest hundred. so that number would become 0 and -99.4E82323 would become -100.
cheers

Oops. Got your * and / round the wrong way. I think its:

umm! yes!, I misread the post and thought the problem was the fraction, I just wrote a reply saying "no! thats right!" to you, then I stopped and looked again , he wanted values to the closest 100, I thought he wanted values to the closest 100th. oops!

haha! Narrowly avoided one of those crappy db forum arguments over a misunderstanding then. Actually, come to think of it, I'm not in the mood today. I probably would've replied with something like "ok".
