formula that sums cells yet does not round the number up or down.
I am trying to sum up 3 cells of 2,140.22. (Net pay)
Yet my =sum(M9:M11) delivers the number 6,420.67. That is an incorrect amount for my payroll records. ?? |

Sounds like each cell in M9:M11 should be rounded as they contain fractions
of a penny. Then the total will come out correctly... -- HTH... Jim Thomlinson "cioangel" wrote: I am trying to sum up 3 cells of 2,140.22. (Net pay) Yet my =sum(M9:M11) delivers the number 6,420.67. That is an incorrect amount for my payroll records. ?? |

You might want to check the values in each of the cells M9-M11. If you
have your cells formatted to show money, you may not see in the active cell the numbers after 2 decimal places. Click on the cell and look at the value on your function bar...I think you'll find one or all three to be a value of 2140.222 or higher. cioangel wrote: I am trying to sum up 3 cells of 2,140.22.

=sumproduct(round(M9:M11,2))
the amounts aren't exactly .22, there is more which rounds to an extra .01 -- HTH Bob Phillips (replace somewhere in email address with gmail if mailing direct) "cioangel" wrote in message ...
