Hi

I'm still using Impromptu at the moment so some of you may have to think back a bit. I have a calculated column in my column e.g. Sales/Total Sales) *100 so that I get a percentage. I then have a prompt for this result so I can select a range e.g. from 1 to 5 %

However when I check my results I can still see lines with 0.64 or 5.04 so there is still some round here. When I look at the Query Columns tab I can see my calculated has been set to Length 8, Precision 0 and Scale 0. I'm gussing this is where the issue is, a 0 scale.

Has anybody else had this issue and how did you resolve it so that decimal places on not rounded.

Thanks
