Calculation is rounding when I don't want it to

I am trying to do a simple calculation where it will take the value in the AssessedVal field and multiply it by a mill rate that I enter. The query works fine, asks me for the mill rate and all. However, it is rounding the results. For example... on one account, the AssessedVal is 10000.00 if I multiply that by the Mill rate of .000786 the result is 7.86, however the calculation is returning a result of 8.00. How can I change this setting to show the exact amount and quit rounding?

Here is the criteria I have for the calculation.
Nz([AssessedVal])*Nz([Enter Mill Rate])

Been fighting with this for hours. Any help would be appreciated.

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
Can you change your query to SQL View, and post it here for us to review?

I think I got it Joe4. Not sure what was happening, I was building and updating the table using a macro. I re-created everything and it is working fine now.

Was pretty strange that it was rounding without the ROUND function.

Thanks anyhow.

I usually see that when people pick something like Integer or Long for the Data Type (which are whole numbers that do not allow decimals), or they apply a Custom Format to the result, which has 0 decimals.
