# FIXED Function

The FIXED function is one of the text and data functions. Is used to return the text representation of a number rounded to a specified number of decimal places.

The FIXED function syntax is:

FIXED(number [,[num-decimal] [,suppress-commas-flag])

where

number is a number to round.

num-decimal is a number of decimal places to display. It is an optional argument, if it's omitted, the function will assume it to be 2.
