Default How to remove automated rounding?

Hi

An invoice template I downloaded seems to do the rounding of sum to nearest
5 or 0; ex. Sum of $660.48 and $4816.38 shows as $5476.85. I don't need this
type of rounding as I'm not dealing in cash. How can I rectify this? Format
CellNumberCategory is Custom and Type is
_($*#,##0.00_);_($*#,##0.00_);_($*"-"??);_(@_)
I don't understand the syntax either.

Thanks for help.

That format is not causing the rounding.

It's probably being rounded with a formula, or, it could be being done with
VBA code.

It is definitely not formula, Biff, as I do not see =ROUND** or =MROUND.
Hmmm, how can I see what VBA codes are at work?

Sorry, I haven't indicated what version I'm using.
It's Excel 2007 and that's part of the confusion. I can't navigate the way
I could in the previous versions of Excel.

Where did you get the template? If it's a commercial product all of the
"important stuff" is probably hidden and protected from view.

Do you see *any* formula in those cells?

It was one of the invoices at Office's official site.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-au/te...CT101172551033

I subsequently deleted cells from GST downwards and made SUBTOTAL into TOTAL
as I didn't need GST calculation afterall.

All I see in the SUBTOTAL cell is =SUM(D18:D30) and no formula for rounding...

Clicked on View tabMacrosView Macros but nothing shows.

Are you sure that you've actually got 660.48 and 4816.38? If you have, for
example, 660.476 and 4816.376 and format them to show only 2 decimal places,
they will show 660.48 and 4816.38, but their total is 5476.852, which again
if formatted to 2 decimal places will show as 5476.85

If you're not dealing with cash, then you don't need the $ in the cell
formatting, so change to Number, and to see what's happening, set it (at
least temporarily) to more than 2 decimal places.
