Hello,Do you guys know how to round any number with decimals to Integer
I have a calculation for number of boxes, I want to use the greatest number out of the calculation
I mean if the result is 2.12, means 3 boxes to use and if it 2.9 its also 3 boxes
Any Ideas

What you are describing is not actualling rounding the number - just check your string for an occurance of a period, get the numbers to the left of it and add 1.

use
round([value to round],[number of decimal places])
so to round 1.52 you would have
round(1.52,0)
gives you 2. You can of course use variables instead of absolutes so should work for you.
