Thaks for the workaround. But according to the documentation, round(3.1416) should return zero digits to the right of the decimal point. I checked with mysql:
$ mysql Server version: 5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.4 (Ubuntu) mysql> select round(3.1416); +---------------+ | round(3.1416) | +---------------+ | 3 | +---------------+ 1 row in set (0.02 sec) Thanks again.
