I am upgrading an MS Access 97 application which uses the format
function to round decimal numbers to two places
e.g. format(dblValue, "standard")
Having done an initial study of this function I can see no obvious
pattern in how it does rounding, it is certainly not bankers rounding.
I need to replicate the rounding algorithm used in the new application
so that the data will be consistent, so if anyone knows the rounding
algorithm used in the Access 97 format function it will save me a lot
of time.
I believe that Microsoft changed the rounding algorithm in Access 2000
so the algorithm I need is the one in Access 97.
