Hi Eric,
I want to write a java function which will format a number upto four digit after decimal and if the number in fifth position after decimal is greater than and equal 5 then it should add 1 with fourth position number and if that number is smaller than 5 than it should trim the rest number after four digit after decimal.Can you please give me some idea how i can do that.
Thanks & Regards
Bikash

The following link shows how I did it for 2 decimal places, I am sure you can figure out how to make it work for 4.
