Forcing Round Cell To Be Constant Number?

Dec 3, 2013

the way my spreadsheet's set up so far is that each employee should have a goal of, say, 100 for how many people they need to sign up. But they each have specific geographic breakdowns in their turf, some of which might be bigger or smaller than others, but at the end should all add up to 100 for each employee.

It's not super hard to do since I just take a goal of 100, in this example, and multiply it by the percent of population of the area in their overall assignment and give them a goal for that area based on that. So if Philadelphia has 70% of their total population, Upper Darby has 20% of their total population, and Phoenixville has 10% of their total population -- the goals would come out like this:

Philadelphia, Goal: 70
Upper Darby, Goal: 20
Phoenixville, Goal: 10
Ryan, Total Goal: 100

For some of the employees, that works out perfectly -- but based on the population sizes, the rounding sometimes gets a little off and it could end up like this:

Philadelphia, Goal: 71
Upper Darby, Goal: 19
Phoenixville, Goal: 11
Ryan, Total Goal: 101

For most employees, it ends up being dead-on 100 -- but there are some whose totals are at 98 or 99 or 101, and I was wondering if there was a way to force it to shave a point off or add a point on somewhere, pending on how close the decimal was when it rounded to make sure that it always ends up exactly on 100. (I'm using 'Data >> Subtotals' to get what's being represented above as "Ryan, Total Goal.")

Determine If Cell Is Number & Round

Jul 27, 2007

It's been awhile since I've done this...and I tried searching for the solution but to no avail.

I'm trying to edit the contents of a series of numbers by using the Rounding function. When I execute my macro on the next cell, it uses the value of the original cell when the macro was created. Here's a copy of my macro:

Sub RoundTest()

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=ROUND(2103.86,0)"
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Range("A1").Select
End Sub

Can Make A Cell Round Value To Nearest Whole Number?

Dec 10, 2012

I have a cell that is going to be used for the quantity of a certain item. I would like to dummy proof this sheet as much as possible so that if someone puts in 21.5, that it will do something like change the value to either 21 or 22, since there can't really be a .5 of this item.

Constant Variables - Declare Name In Separate UserForm As Constant

May 8, 2012

I have a userForm (Form1) that contains a persons name that I would like to reference in a separate UserForm (Form2). In the separate UserForm (Form2) I need to reference this persons name many times, so I was wondering if there was a was to declare this name in the separate UserForm (Form2) as a constant. Only thing is that a constant, to the best of my knowledge, must be an expression and not a variable. Mainly, I'm trying to avoid declaring the myName variable in each Sub within Form2, which it will be needed for a ton of Sub's.

Code for Form2: Const myName As String = Form1.txtName.Value

Round Number To Nearest Equal Or Lower Number Of A String

Dec 20, 2013

For this example, A1 is the given at 19.875 I am trying to get A2 to net a result of 19.5. A2 is to net that result by searching through cells B1:B14 and finding the nearest equal or lower number. If A1 is less than 13.5 a result of "error" should be generated in A2.

B1=13.5
B2=15.5
B3=17.5
B4=19.5
B6=21.5

Forcing Cell Value From Listbox

Feb 26, 2009

Command button opens userform with a listbox. Unfortunately during testing I found that if a value is not selected from the listbox and the OK button is clicked, it bugs out.

Is there a way to force a cell value from the listbox? BTW, the listbox first number is 3 so it would be my choice of default.

I would imagine the code would need to be with the OK button, so here is the code for it:

Forcing A User To Hard Enter Into A Cell

Apr 8, 2009

Is it possible to lock a cell so that the user must enter the number manually as opposed to using a formula.

There is a cell on one of our spreadsheets that the user should be hand entering the numbers from the general ledger this is done to ensure that the general ledger balance is the same as the spreadsheets totals. However most of the user insert a formula that just copies the number from above into this cell that should be hand entered.

Round To Whole Number?

Feb 3, 2014

rounding the numbers. I am working on a quote in which quantity is arrived by dividing the sell price by Total sell price. The condition is the result (quantity) should always be a whole number, I can achieve that by cell formatting but when the calculation is done using handheld calculator the results are different.

I need the result to be same if using excel or handheld device i.e quantity in whole number.

Round The Number UP To The Next Whole

Nov 12, 2007

I want to use a formula that will round the number UP to the next whole if the the tenths is .3 or higher and round DOWN if the tenths is .2 or lower.

ex. 79.1 --> 79
79.2 --> 79
79.3---> 80
79.4---> 80
79.5---> 80
79.6---> 80
79.7---> 80
79.8---> 80
79.9---> 80

I am thinking this is either not possible or would be an If Then type formula but way beyond my knowledge.

The reason I want to do this is becaue if my student has a 79.5 avg for instance I would normally round to 80. However if they are off by just .1 (ex 79.4) i still want to give them the 80 and then I decided to make it within .2 (ex. 79.3.)

Round Off Number With Decimals At The End?

Jun 21, 2014

I want round off number to be with the decimals (usually decimals r discarded for round off feature). I ll be able to explain better with an example.

10.36+10.36= 20.72. If i round it up, it vl be 21.
what i am tryin is to get 21.00 after round off.

I prepare my bills in excel and after total of all products, if i get a decimal number, I would like it be rounded off to whole number with decimal and 00 at the end (eg. 21.00 instead of 21.27 or 22.00 instead of 21.77). I tried to change decimals but when I select 2 decimal places, it gives me the actual fig(eg. 21.27 instead of 21.00)

I am already using =sum for the total so cannot use another formula (as far as i know, 1 cell can have only 1 formula. Dunno if multiple can be used in a single cell).

this is a formular that i used to divide

=IF(Z6=TRUE,K6/MID(D6, FIND("1=",D6)+2,LEN(D6)-FIND("1=",D6)-1),K6)

the problem i have is that if i have 14 in cell k6 and 1=10 in d6 the answer i get is 1.40 what i need the formular to do is always round it up to the highest number
ie 2 not 1.4

example 1=10 20 answer 2
1=10 25 answer 3
1=4 11 answer 3
1=4 20 answer 5

Round Division Result To Whole Number?

Jul 26, 2007

I work in a finance dept and we often need to divide our numbers into 12 months but I need to only work with whole numbers, not decimals. Is there a way for example of forcing either in a formula or with VBA code to get 10,000 to divide equally by 12 months? At the moment it comes out at 833.333333. What I want is something that randomly assigns 833 to any one of the 11 months of the year and for the other remaining month put in the difference which is 837 to get the total to add up to 10,000exactly.

Round A Number To Next Multiple Of 10 With Condition

May 14, 2011

I am trying to round a number to next multiple of 10 with condition i.e. for example if number is 1230.56 then it should round off to 1230 but if the unit number is more than zero i.e. 1231.56 then it should round off to 1240.

That means the main number should round off to next multiple of 10 only if unit number is equal to or more than 1.

Example 120.11 should round off to 120
121 to 130
120.99 to 120
119 to 120 and so on

Round To Nearest WHOLE NUMBER That Is Multiple Of 5?

Feb 17, 2014

I have numbers ranging from 1 to 90 that need to be rounded the nearest whole number that is divisible by 5.

Expected outcome

1 should round up to five88 should round up to 9072 should round down to 70

Round - modified for multiples of five* - works perfectly well for number that are greater than or equal to 3. However, 1 and 2 round to zero.

I have tried using IF to have the formula ROUNDUP for 1 and 2 and ROUND for 3 and up with no luck.

Every result I have seen with the Google says the solution is "=ROUND(A1*0.05,0)". This does not work.

VBA is an option for this workbook.

*ROUND(A1/5,0)*5))

Round Up To Nearest Number Within A List

Mar 23, 2009

I guess I have an odd rounding up query. I want to know if its possible to make excel round up a number to the nearest number from within a list of numbers.

For instance my list could be

10
12
15
17
19
22
25
30
35
42

The numbers arent odds or evens or multiples of anything so I'm guessing there won't be an inbuilt function to do this but is there anyway I could get to the answer in a more round about way with helper calculations??

I guess I could use the following -

=IF(A1>42,"Error",IF(A110,A112,A1

Round Up/Down Based On Decimal Number

May 13, 2008

I receive a list of numbers that are rounded to three decimal places. I need to round them to two decimals - here's the catch - if the third decimal is a 9, it needs to go up, otherwise, 1-8 need to round down.

Example
3.678 goes to 3.67
3.679 goes to 3.68

If the third decimal is <=8, it needs to go down.
