FIX

FIX( number )

Truncate a number to a whole number by eliminating the decimal point and all characters to the right of the decimal point.

For example 9.89 will return 9 and -2.11 will return -2.

The major difference between FIX and INT is that FIX provides a true integer function (ie, does not return the next lower number for negative numbers as INT() does). This behavior is for Microsoft compatibility.
