rounding error?
Initially I overlooked your formula when I responded the first time but I've
not been able to replicate your answer. I'm using Excel 2003 and regardless
of where I do the rounding I'm getting 0

In my C1 formula why doesn't "round(a1,4)" calculate a value of 5.0569 so
when I subtract 5.0569 I get zero?

Regardless of how the cell has been formatted, cell A1 still contains the
value of 5.0568725. To get a zero you would have to round the number in cell
A1 to 4 decimal positions"
=ROUND(5.0568725,4)

A1 = 5.0568725
B1 = 5.0569
C1 = Round(A1,4)-B1
Why doesn't C1 give me a zero value?
