Rounding Up in VB Script

I am trying to round-up in VBscript but am hitting blanks...

My script so far is...

Value = Quantity / Packing
Value = Int(value + 0.8)

Quantity and Packing are variables and always needs to round up

Please help?

Interesting article on rounding in VB Script here. To answer your question, and to quote from the referenced article, I think you could use the Fix function. It will always round down (closer to 0) by truncating the decimal portion. If you add 1 to the result of Fix (assuming a positive argument), then you have your numbers rounded up.
