Not clear.

How did you rounded 0.6667 to 0.66? What kind of rounding is this? and what do you mean by remove the decimal place?

SQL

DECLARE @decimal decimal(6, 6)
SET @decimal = 0.6667


--EASY WAY (with rounding)
DECLARE @decimal2 decimal(6,2)
SET @decimal2 = @decimal

PRINT @decimal2


--SEMI-EASY WAY (no rounding)
--Not dependable unless you have a set length for all the INPUT numbers
DECLARE @vchar_decimal varchar(4)
SET @vchar_decimal = CAST(@decimal as varchar(10))

PRINT @vchar_decimal


--HARD WAY (no rounding)
DECLARE @char_decimal varchar(MAX)
DECLARE @decimal_position int
DECLARE @decimal_output varchar(50)

SET @char_decimal = CAST(@decimal as varchar(MAX))
SET @decimal_position = CHARINDEX('.', @char_decimal)
SET @decimal_output = SUBSTRING(@char_decimal, 1, (@decimal_position + 2))

PRINT @decimal_output

Hope this helps,

 select CONVERT(DECIMAL(18,2),CAST(cast(@DecimalVal* 100 as int) as decimal (18, 2))/100)
