rounding numbers to the nearest dollar amount

[HelpExcel]

I need to round currency to the nearest dollar amount

=ROUND(A1,0)

This is not working. I get a circular reference error. I read in one of the
discussion's that Excel 2000 and up do not round correctly. Are you aware of
this issue?

 

[Gary''s Student]

That is not our problem. What cell are you try to round and what is its
contents??

 

[HelpExcel]

I have a range of cells that are blank right now. I set up the formula like
below and it states that is a circular reference error. Then I try $15.50
and the formula goes away. I just want to round any amount with two decimals
like $15.50 to $16.00 or $12.30 to $13.00.

that worked but is it possible to have it round in the same column of A2?

Rounding "in place" is possible, but it needs a macro.

Install the following event macro in the worksheet code area:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Set r = Range("A:A")
If Intersect(r, Target) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Set t = Target
Application.EnableEvents = False
t.Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.Round(t.Value, 0)
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub


Because it is worksheet code, it is very easy to install and use:

1. right-click the tab name near the bottom of the window
2. select View Code - this brings up a VBE window
3. paste the stuff in and close the VBE window

If you save the workbook, the macro will be saved with it.

To remove the macro:

1. bring up the VBE windows as above
2. clear the code out
3. close the VBE window

I added the macro but I think we need to modify it. I entered in $15.20 and
it took it to $15.00. Can we round all numbers up?

 

[Gary''s Student]

Change the one line to:

t.Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.RoundUp(t.Value, 0)

I removed the second column for the actual cost and now it is not working at
all. I removed the macro and then added it it again and it is still not
working. Help?

 

[HelpExcel]

Ok - I got it to work but then it runs and debugger comes up and the macro no
longer works.
