how do I round numbers in .125 increments

[Peo Sjobom]

Increments? Are you rounding up or do you want to round to the nearest
0.125?

for the latter

=ROUND(A1/0.125,0)*0.125

for the former

=CEILING(A1,0.125)

I posted under another topic too but then found this one to more closely match what I'm trying to do.

I have a formula already in the cells I want to round to the nearest .125

X is the column I'm wanting to round up, however I already have a formula in X2 which is T2+U2=X2.

How can I get the whole column formatted for =CEILING(A1,0.125) without loosing my original formula?

=CEILING(T2+U2,0.125)
but note that this doesn't round to the *nearest* .125, but to the value
above.

You may want MROUND() if you want the nearest.
