Good Day

I have a RadMaskedTextBox, which gets binded with the following value from the DB.

XML

<telerik:RadMaskedTextBox IsEnabled="False" Height="22" HorizontalAlignment="Right"    Mask="p1" MaskType="Numeric" MaskedText="0" EmptyContent="0" Margin="0,281,880,0" Name="RETURNONASSETS" telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Metro" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="227" TabIndex="8" SelectionOnFocus="SelectAll" Grid.Column="1" />

0.0473445085040537

and on the application it format the value as

4.7 %

which is Correct, now I want to understand how did it come to 4.7.
I tried this

SQL

select round(0.0473445085040537,2)
select  round(0.0473445085040537,3)

but my calc here does not give me 4.7.

I need help with this TSQL to make it 4.7.

Is that long decimal number going to be constant or will it change?

Solution 1

Have a look at RadControls for Silverlight - Numeric Mask[^]

If you take a closer look at your code you'll see Mask="p1"
