Hi

How can I get the below query to return the result to 2 decimal places?

(SUM(Soccer_Base.dbo.Results.AwayFT) + SUM(Soccer_Base.dbo.Results.HomeFT))
			  / COUNT(Soccer_Base.dbo.Results.AwayTeam) AS GPG

Thanks

Mosiki

[code]
convert(
numeric(19,2),
(SUM(Soccer_Base.dbo.Results.AwayFT) + SUM(Soccer_Base.dbo.Results.HomeFT))
/ COUNT(Soccer_Base.dbo.Results.AwayTeam)
)
[/code]
Cheers

You can also use ROUND function..

ROUND(
(SUM(Soccer_Base.dbo.Results.AwayFT) +
SUM(Soccer_Base.dbo.Results.HomeFT))
/ COUNT(Soccer_Base.dbo.Results.AwayTeam)
,2)
AS GPG

Thanks..

you'll get the value rounded to 2 decimal places but result may still contain additional 0s after decimal based on highest scale value among the involved columns
