Hi

You can use the round() function :

C11_rounded = round(c11, .001);

Best,

You could use a format to round variables, rather than using the ROUND function. But it really depends on what you plan to do with these variables after the rounding or formatting. What are you going to do with the variables after the rounding or formatting?

format c11 c12 c13 10.3;
