vb Code:

Dim x As Single
x = 4.01234
MsgBox (Left(x, 1))

Does that help?

Hell-Lord, your suggestion would only work on numbers less then 10. I'd use:

Code:

   
      Dim x As Single
      x = 4.01234
      MsgBox (Int(x))

Yes >.< should have thought of that thanks.
Also probably use CInt instead of Int but yea much better.

using the round function you can set to however many decimal places you want

vb Code:

x = 4.32322
x = Round(x, 1)' one decimal place

Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed pete
