How can I prevent VB from rounding up?

I need to have it equal to SQL Servers value. Thanks.

What type of variable are you placing it in? VB is capable of handling more than 3 digits of precision, but it depends on how you go about it. It might be a good idea to create a new project, and just put in the absolute minimum code to retrieve your value. Then you can play around with that process until it works - trying out different variable types, or whatever. (Also keep in mind VB could be storing the correct value, and just rounding when you display it - Format() function may help there.)

That will also make it easier to deal with the problem here on TheScripts, as you can show us the entire code in case there's anything subtle that might affect it.
