Help....;o)
I have this formula : =IF(K10=1,I10*K10,K10-I10) and it keeps coming up
with looks like some type of rounding. I have no condition formats set in
these cells nor anything else, they are just formulas. Maybe someone knows
of a better formula I can use. The thing is I have to have to make sure that
the "total" column stays at zero dollars so that my sum function works at the
end of the column. Thanks in advance.

I K L
UNIT PRICE QUANTITY * TOTAL**
$10.00 -6 -$16.00

GRAND TOTALS: -$16.00

Kimo,

What do you mean by:

with looks like some type of rounding.

Can you give an example.

Also what do you mean by:

of a better formula I can use. The thing is I have to have to make sure
that
the "total" column stays at zero dollars so that my sum function works at
the
end of the column.

How can the Total remain at zero?

My example is on here. The unit price is $10.00 and I subtract 6 and I'm
getting
$-16.00, it's suppose to be -$60.00 but if I just put in 6 it calculates it
correctly, so it must be the formula. Isn't that some type of rounding
issue? No matter what you change the qty to it adds another dollar it looks
like. I don't want the grand total to remain at zero, that would defeat my
purpose of the calculation for my grand total. I have 30 line items if there
isn't anything in the total field I need that to remain as zero $$'s and not
get the #N/A error.

I find it quite difficult to understand what it is that you are trying to
do. If you want $60 for a quantity of 6 and -$60 for a quantity of -6 then
change the formula to:

=IF(K10=1,I10*K10,K10*I10)

If you want the Total cell to remain looking blank until a quantity is
entered then use:

=IF(K10="","",IF(K10=1,I10*K10,K10*I10))

To keep the Grand Total cell at the bottom of the 30 lines looking blank
until you enter something then use:

=IF(COUNT(L1:L31)=0,"",SUM(L1:L31))

I K L
UNIT PRICE QUANTITY * TOTAL**
$10.00 -6 -$16.00

GRAND TOTALS: -$16.00

Neither 3 of those worked still rounded up. Though I figured it out, all I
had to do was change the format from number or general to text in the qty
column, thanks for your help anyways.

I still don't understand it but as long as you are sorted now I'm happy
