In article <40d030b5$0$93324$e4fe514c_at_news.xs4all.nl>, Erik Ykema says...

> What about the standard SQL-function CEIL?

> Ceil (x) returns the smallest integer equal to or greater than x, hence
> ceil (29/10)=ceil(2.9)=3
> ceil(30/10)=ceil(3)=3
> ceil(31/10)=ceil(3.1)=4

Cheers Erik - it's a long time since I used ceil - I had forgotten it existed!
