I have been using a round command in a few places to round
a value to zero decimal places using the following format,
round('+value+' , 0)
but this consistantly returns the rounded result of the value
to one decimal place with a zero
EG:
4.97 is returned as 5.0 when i want it returned as 5, does
anyone know why this is and if i can get the round to make
the value 5?

Help on built-in function round in module __builtin__:
round(...)
round(number[, ndigits]) -floating point number
Round a number to a given precision in decimal digits (default 0
digits).
This always returns a floating point number. Precision may be
negative.
HTH,
~Simon
BTW, '+value+' ..? Huh?

round returns a float. You probably want to convert it to an int.
>>int(round(4.9 7))

I have an entry like this

$tax = .065;
$ad2day = 104.50;
$ad2day = round(($ad2day * $tax)+ $ad2day, 2);
