Default Sum does not sum to zero - leaves very small remainder

Hi,
I'm using SUM on a large spreadsheet of dollar type amounts that should only
have information to 2 decimal places and should sum to zero.

The problem is the sum function sums to a small remainder - in this case :

0.000000000069121597334742500000

I've looked at each value and none of them have any decimal values greater
than 2 decimal places.

Any ideas about why this is occuring ?

Regards
Michael
