| | Operations of FormatNumber function Hi, I'm wondering about the FormatNumber function (http:// msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ws343esk(VS.85).aspx). If I call this function with the appropriate arguments to return me a number with only one figure after the decimal point, is this value rounded or simply truncated? That is, given the call as described and the math comes to 1.27, will I be returned 1.2 or 1.3? Thanks, Andy |
