I also would like to know the answer to Rajesh's question and to one more question.

You talk about converting, is it to another data type? or is it just that you want to format it so that you could display it? or is it just that your calculation precision is 4 decimal points?

On a side note, double abc = 23.22d; sets abc to 23.22000000 so it won't affect your calculations at all, the only place where it would affect is while displaying. Please, correct me I am wrong and give us an example of such an instance :)

Good answer, but change "f2" to "f4".

Solution 1

SQL

Use   Math.Round(Decimal,   Integer)
sample:
Math.Round(23.22,   4)
result: 23.2200

VB

decimal.Round((decimal)23.12003, 4)
 - 23.1200
decimal.Round((decimal)23.120, 4)
 - 23.12
