Hi Keith

maybe
=ROUND(A1,2)+ROUND(A2,2)

or you could tick tools / options / calculations tab - precision as
displayed
from help:
"Precision as displayed Permanently changes stored values in cells from full
precision (15 digits) to whatever format, including decimal places, is
displayed."

Cheers

I have several values that have been set to show only 2 decimal places, but
the actual value has more. When I sum the two cells I get the wrong
result.

For example

A1 = 23.34656 displayed as 23.35
A2 = 1.1072 displayed as 1.11

When the two displayed values are added the answer is 24.46 but if you
enter the formula A1+A2 the result is 24.45

How do I stop Excel doing this?
