Access keeps rounding down my numbers in a number field
I have created a database for a non-profit that must show at least 75%
participation. When an attendee meets 4 of 6 hour attendance the program rounds down to 4 from 4.5. I have tried all formats and only currency shows 4.5, but of course that is with a $. HELP!!!!! -- tsmith0125

I have tried all formats and only currency shows 4.5, but of course that is with a $. HELP!!!!! The format is almost surely irrelevant. I suspect that you're trying to store the participation or the attendance (it's not clear from your post where you're trying to store the 4.5) is a Number field of the default "Long Integer" size. Open the table in design view, select the field, and look at the field properties in the lower left. A Long Integer is by definition a whole number and will not store fractions. Change the size to Single to allow frational values to be stored. -- John W. Vinson [MVP]
