rounding OK on one machine not so on another - same exe build

edited March 2006 in General
I have an RB7.03 enterprise report with currency fields. On and
XP sp2 desktop machine (mine) the rounding is good ie 0.595
rounds to 0.56 but on the Windows 2003 server on which it needs
to run it rounds to 0.59. I believe (form experts exchange
threads) that there is a difference between Windows 2003 and XP
when it comes to rounding via the format function which I
believe (form previous threads in this ng) is how RB does it.
This means I have to remove all my data linked fields and put in
variables so that I can apply rounding myself.

Have you a patch or advice on changing the RB source code to
remedy this without my having to change hundreds (ok, dozens) of
data fields?
