Default Currency sum not correct Excel 2003

Even though all currency values displayed are 2 decimals on my sheet, when I
use the formula function sum or subtotal to show the total of cells, it is
displaying a rounded down amount and is 1 cent off because it is adding as if
it knows there are actually 3 decimals in one of the cells even though only
two are displayed. Can anyone tell me how to correct this?

You could try

=SUM(ROUND(A1:A10,2))

which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not
just Enter.
Excel will automatically enclose the formula in braces (curly brackets), do
not try to do this manually.
When editing the formula, it must again be array-entered.
