Subject Re: [firebird-support] About UDF's problem
Author Yang Jin
Thanks.
But a new problem found.
Cast (Value1 as numeric(9,2)),Value1= 13.275,reuslt is 13.27;
Cast (Value2 as numeric(9,2)),Value2= 13.228,reuslt is 13.23;
what is the rule to round?

hope for your reply.

regards.

Perhaps the number is a floating point number. IBUDF's round() function
takes a scaled numeric. But round() does not truncate numbers, it removes
the decimal part of a scaled numeric and returns an integer.

You don't need a UDF. Just use a CAST() expression:

select cast(sum(Field1) as numeric(9,2)) as Total
from table1
