![]() Excel has a rounding error. When rounding 2.5 it returns 3. However, the basic rules of rounding states that when the digit following the number to be rounded is 5 you always round to an even number. In other Microsoft Tools this does not occur. For example, if you perform the following two computations in excel and Visual Basic, Visual Basic will give you the correct answer. Is there another function that can be used to resolve this problem The correct answer 4=Round(2+.5, 0) * 2 The incorrect answer 6=Round(2+.5, 0) * 2 |
