To accomplish that, you would use math.round
Heres a brief explanation with examples.

The Math.round() method is used to round a number up or down to the nearest integer. Positive numbers with a decimal point less than 0.5, and negative numbers with a decimal point greater than 0.5 are rounded down. Postivie numbers with a decimal point greater than or equal to 0.5, and negative numbers with a decimal point less than or equal to 0.5 are round up.

Example:
Math.round(1.499999); // Returns 1
Math.round(1.5); // Returns 2
Math.round(1.6); // Returns 2
Math.round(-5.49999); // Returns -5
Math.round(-5.5); // Returns -5
Math.round(-5.6); // Returns -6

I edited your thread title to one that is more appropriate. Thank you.

how is it possible to format a number for a dynamic textbox to always display at 2 decimal points using Actionscript 2.0.

for this code, the dynamic text box is 2 levels deep (or whatever) as you can tell by the path...

var decimals = _root.DisplayMC.Display = 9;
decimals.toFixed(2);
 

yeah, and my code totally doesn't work at all...

any thoughts?
