Hi Robert,

The 35 you see in Excel may well be 35.17073170731710, (* 1.23 then equals
43.26). It can show as 35 in the cell unless you click on the 'increase
decimal' icon.

So you may have a rounding situation to deal with.

Thankyou for your reply. If I enter =35*1.23 I also get 43.26. I tried
opening a new workbook this morning and entering te same and it gave
the correct result. Ive also tried Application.Calculation in vba, this
worked when I ran it. As soon as I reentered the formula it was 43.26
again. Maybe a reinstall of excel.
