I have LibreOffice 4.0.3.3 on a Windows 7 computer. I have an older database created originally with OpenOffice. The database is a household inventory including item description, brand name, serial number, date an item was purchased and its exact cost (among other fields). I have just noticed that in LibreOffice Base the program is rounding all costs to $.00). I cannot find a setting that is causing this unwanted rounding. When I look at the format of any cell that is involved, one item says that it will accept two digits past the decimal marker (but nothing mentions rounding off). I did not change any settings between when I used OpenOffice Base (where it displayed costs correctly) and when I changed over to LibreOffice Base. #1 - is this the right forum to ask this question? #2 - is anybody else having a similar problem? #3 - is there a setting that I have overlooked that will solve this unwanted rounding of costs? Thanks for any answers. jnrigg -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/rounding-off-number-results-in-Base-tp4056773.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.(Continue reading)
