RE: Rounding up to nearest 1000

"Rounding up" is another name for "ceiling".  The formula is:

        (INT((X - 1) / N) + 1) * N

Where X is your original number and N is the divisor you are trying to round
to.  For example, if X is 1 and N is 1000, INT(0/1000) is 0, and you end up
with (0 + 1) * 1000, or 1000.  This will work all the way up to 1000, which
gives you INT(999/1000), still 0, so (0 + 1) * 1000 = 1000.  At 1001,
however, you get INT(1000/1000) or 1, so you get (1 + 1) * 1000 = 2000.

Step functions rule.

Greg - this rounding algorithm is for rounding to the nearest whatever.
NOT rounding UP to the nearest whatever.
