MROUND does not seem work at all in Excel 2003
(11.6355.6360) SP1. I am using MS Win XP Pro SP2.
When I put =MROUND(...) into a cell, I get a #NAME?
error.

The irony is: MROUND worked for me in previous
Excel revisions, even though it was not in the
catalog of commands. Now it appears in the catalog
of commands, but it does not work. Go figure!

Can anyone explain why MROUND does not work -- or
how to get it to work?

Is there an alternative function that performs the
same computation, namely: round to a multiple of
a specified number?

Yes, I can compute this myself, namely: MROUND(N,M)
= M*ROUND(N/M,0). But MROUND is more convenient.

MROUND is an Analysis Toolpak function,
ToolsAdd-ins, check Analysis Toolpak (and Analysis Toolpak-VBA)

Duh, right. Even says that in the Help text. Klunk!

Thanks.
