Hello,
I have a macro which calculates the value of a currency variable and then using the statement ActiveCell.Offset(-1,7).Value = currTradeValue outputs it to a spreadsheet. The value is always rounded to 2 decimal points despite trying the following; 1. I have checked the value of the variable prior to the above statement being executed and it is as I expect - 3 decimal points e.g. -1.125 2. Formatted the target cell using ActiveCell.Offset(-1,7).NumberFormat = "#,##0.00_);[Red](#,##0.00)" prior to the assignment statement. 3. Manually formatted the cell within Excel prior to the assignment statement. 4. Checked the Online Help. If I have a cell that contains a 4 decimal point number for example and format the cell to round to 2 decimal points, and then select that cell, the number in the formula bar is the original 4 decimal point number. For some reason, the value of the currency variable seems to be modifed to 2 decimal points before being output as it is the modified value that I see in the formula bar when the cell in question is selected. Could someone please tell me what I or Excel is doing wrong. Thank you Mark. |
