    Question Rounding up or down by a fraction other than .5

    Is here any way to customize a rounding formula so that a value is rounded up when the fraction is .7 and rounded down when less than .7?

    Help!! and Thanks in advance.

    Hi, welcome to the forum

    Take a look at the MROUND() function
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)

    Re: Rounding up or down by a fraction other than .5

    Not really looking to round to a multiple. We have a business rule that states that a figure such as 4.625 must round down to 4 (or 4.6 or 4.62 as specified by the number of decimal places).

    4.69 would still round down to 4, while 4.70 would round up to 5.

    Thanks.
