One way would be to wrap your calculations with ROUND(), e.g.;

=ROUND(<your existing formula,2)

But if you're averaging or otherwise doing division, that won't
necessarily solve all your problems. See

Hi everyone,

I've used the percentage increase answer provided by GE Gimpsey to calculate
increase in fees for this year. Only problem was that the cells are all
formatted to 2 decimal places but calc'ed on full figure so that once rounded
soem of the figures were incorrect if you worked out the %age increase the
old fashioned way by calculator (not old enough - or clever enough - for the
old fashioned way to be in my head)

What can I do to make sure that the calculation is carried out to 2 dec
places without altering the orig data.

TIA
