You can do it in LDAO as well, although there's no direct "round my decimals to
3 places" command. First, open your file in the editor. Second, go to Options
| Decimals, and enter 3. Then put a line "0 SCALE 1" at the beginning of the
block of code you want to modify and "0 SCALE END" at the end of the block.
Select the block, and then go to Tools | LDL 2 DAT.
Obviously, if you need to do a lot of rounding, it will be faster to use LDD.
