ArcGIS – Rounding Column in Attribute Table Using Field Calculator

Question

I want to use the Field Calculator in ArcMap to round an existing column to two decimals. Currently I have a column that is 6 decimal places long and would like to simply round it down to 2 decimals.

I had planned on using the Field Calculator (possibly using Python) to do this, but maybe there is an easier way?

The accepted answer is probably the easiest way to change a single field, however, here is how to do it with the field calculator for both python and VB.

VB:

round([column], 2)

Python:

round(!column!, 2)

Answer 1

Have you tried something like what's below in the Field Calculator?

round(!FieldName!, 2)

Make sure you set the Parser to Python in the Field Calculator.
