I just performed a bit of a test.
Cells across.
A1| =RANDBETWEEN(0,10)/100 # simulate dollar and cent amounts
between 0.00 and $1000.00
B1| =A1*0.15 # simulate a tax of 15% on the amounts in A
C1| =ROUND(B1,2) # round the tax amount to 2 places
(whole
Sorry, this is NOT a bug. This is exactly the result I expect if I was using
VBA in MSO. Read on to find out why.
I say this without looking at the code, but, you specifically told LO to use
the VBA version of rounding, which is NOT normal rounding. VBA rounding uses
bankers rounding.

Was the page I found that mentioned it, but other pages
didn't mention the banking rounding? So not sure if excell
would use regular rounding in excell, but uses the
banking rounding if using

Oh, yes. I didn't
One windows excell page mentions that it uses the
banking rounding method, which I believe is the round to
nearest even. So, using that method 12.125 would round
to 12.12, while 12.135 would round to 12.14..
With this method if next digit is 1,2,3,4 the number
rounds down. If it is 6,7,8,9 it
I just found that you can do this with the already existing Format()
function. No need for making your own function and no need for using VBA
compatibility:
Print Format(12.125, "0.00")
The second parameter is what you would have written in the ”Format code”
field when formatting a cell in Calc.
Looks like a bug to me. 12.125 returns 12.12, but 12.1251 returns 12.13.
Both should return the same.
I guess this bug should be reported.
Meanwhile, you can make your own function that you can use. Here are two
different suggestions.
1: This one use the Calc built-in ROUND() cell function. Place
