I am having trouble formatting a DATEDIFF with 2 decimal places.
Can anyone help?
tbVisitLog
VisitID | ChildID | DateTimeIn | DateTimeOut | etc...
tbChild
ChildID | ChildLastName
When calculating duration of stay...
SELECT c.ChildFirstName + ' ' + c.ChildLastName AS ChildName,
(DATEDIFF(n,v.DateTimeIn, v.DateTimeOut) * "The Rate for the child") AS Amou
ntDue
FROM tbVisitLog v
INNER JOIN tbChild ON c.ChildID = v.ChildID
WHERE c.ChildID IN (group of children leaving)
I want to format the duration * rate to be a two-decimal number. Without for
matting I get numbers like this:
ChildName | 0.52000000000000002
ChildName | 4.0199999999999996
Thanks
Sonny
