Default Custom Formatting

What are you trying to do? If I understand what you are writing below, you
want a number, for example, 721, to be entered as 721, treated in all
calculations as 721, but what is displayed is only 700?
Wouldn't this cause some concern if, for example, you knew 2 numbers were
supposed to be added up, but it looked very wrong.
i.e.:
700 (721) + 600 (647) = 1400 (1368)

If not, please explain more.

What is the custom format to display numbers to the nearest 100 or nearest
10, i.e., 721 be displyed as 700 or 720. I know that formattig a number that
way will retain its unrounded value in memory for all computations performed
using it. (Not so using the "Round" Function.)
