Default Round to nearest multiple

Hi, I want to round to the nearest (up/down) mutiple of 25. I saw some info
online about MROUND formulas but I can't seem to get it to work on my 2003
excel and it is not listed as a valid formula within the selection.

I also saw posts about ceilings and floors but I wanted a formula that would
round both up and down to the approprate multiple.

Hi James

The hard way:
=ROUND(A1/25,0)*25

MROUND is part of the Analysis Tool Pack which must be installed before you
can use the function. If you don't want have to install the ATP then try:

=ROUND(E11/25,0)*25
