=CEILING(Sheet4!BY6, 25) How I get it to round negative numbers too It works with positive numbers but when I insert ie -360, it should read -350 but I get the following #NUM! -- Bob |

Refer help on CEILING
It is supposed to return number rounded up, away from zero. =CEILING(-2.5, 2) Returns an error, because -2.5 and 2 have different signs (#NUM!) You should be using =CEILING(Sheet4!BY6, -25) If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Jacob Skaria" wrote: =IF(Sheet4!BY6<0,-CEILING(ABS(Sheet4!BY6),25),CEILING(Sheet4!BY6,25) ) There may be a different solution If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Bob" wrote: I have the following formula =CEILING(Sheet4!BY6, 25) How I get it to round negative numbers too It works with positive numbers but when I insert ie -360, it should read -350 but I get the following #NUM! -- Bob |
