When I enter £13.75 in to the form, it automatically rounds it up to £14. Or 
rounds down when under .5. I have gone in to the design view of the form and 
changed the properties so that there are 2 decimal places but this has still 
not worked.
Can you please help me?

The form stores its data in a table.
Open the table in design view.
Select the field where the data is stored.
Change the Data Type from Number to Currency.

The default number is Long Integer
The integer types store whole numbers only.
Your example looks like you want currency, but the Double size can also 
store fractional values.

Hi Allan 
Thanks for responding. 

Can you clarify the following for me, I am not sure that I understand your 
response. I need to go in the table in Design view and then I change the 
default number from Long interger to what value? Sorry if I am being thick!! 

Any help would be much appreciated !
Thanks 
Heidi 

Hi Heidi,
Just change the DataType from Number to Currency.  Don't wory about the
bottom section.
