Calculation question
I have a calculation that I do not even know where to begin with. It is a
check digit calculation. I can easily come up with the sum, but then the fun begins. I need to divide the sum by 10. Seems easy enough, except that I need to end up with a remainder, not a fraction or decimal. So if i end up with 79, I need to end up with the 9 or eventually after subtracting the remainder from 10, the 1. In this case the 1 is the check digit. Any ideas? |
Hi Bryan
with your number in A1 =10-Mod(A1,10) cheers JulieD "Bryan" wrote in message ... I have a calculation that I do not even know where to begin with. It is a check digit calculation.

Awesome! Thanks! One more question I forgot in my first post. If the check
digit is a 10, then I need it to be 0. "JulieD" wrote: Hi Bryan with your number in A1 =10-Mod(A1,10) cheers JulieD "Bryan" wrote in message ...
