:) OK, so to sum up, two things were wrong with your very first code: a) Used TextBox without conversion -> use ValueBox instead b) To round to decimals, the second argument to Round() must be negative -> use -2 This gives: Dim prmAmnt As Integer Dim totAmnt As Integer Dim perAmnt As Single prmAmnt = prmBox.Value totAmnt = totBox.Value perAmnt = Round(prmAmnt / totAmnt * 100, -2) Print perAmnt This code works for me (but without the ValueBox input stuff, I used prmAmnt = 2 and totAmnt = 3 hard-coded instead) If this does not work, please say what makes you feel that it didn't work.
