Thanks Robert for the pointer,
I'm slowly but surely learning and reading all that classes... I marked this message to make sure I have a reminder;)

Glad you found a solution that works for you. However, for precise handling of rounding you should also get familiar with the java.math.BigDecimal class. This class has features for setting the scale using a specified rounding mode. Plus it includes methods for perform math on objects rather than primitives.

Examples:

    BigDecimal myVal = new BigDecimal(25.125);
    myVal.setScale(2, BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP);

This would result in myVal having the value 25.13


BigDecimal myVal = new BigDecimal(25.125); myVal.setScale(2, BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_DOWN);

This would result in myVal having the value 25.12

Mmmm, let's say thank you Christian, this works like a charm;)
my java knowledge is improving everyday, but I started from the very beginning;)


Thanks again.

... that should have been

  double rounded = Math.rint(2.0 * original) / 2.0;

My apologies,
