Don't know who first posted this tip (hopefully no one will get ticked off 
because I don't remember who).  But it's an oldy but goody that I needed to 
have today and never used before!    So in case anyone else can use this 
code....

I got a request to round a number up or down to the nearest .5 increment.  Such 
as:
       9.05    9.0
        19.61    19.5
        3.7        3.5
        3.9        4.0
        0.37    0.5

Sure enough, found this lovely calculation in my notes:
    select totaltimess, (.50 * (int( 2 * (totaltimess + .25)))) from tmphone 

Works great!!
