Due to shortcomings in LibreOffice Calc (maybe in other spreadsheets too, I don't know), I had to adjust your formula as follows: =IF(ROUND(A1-INT(A1),8)=0.5,IF(MOD(ROUND(A1-0.5),2),A1+0.5,A1-0.5),ROUND(A1)) and for the more usual case of needing to do a Bankers Round to a penny and not a dollar, I am actually using this: =IF(ROUND(100*A1-INT(100*A1),8)=0.5,IF(MOD(ROUND(100*A1-0.5),2),A1+0.005,A1-0.005),ROUND(A1,2)) The reason I needed to use ROUND... in both tests is that LibraOffice Calc seems to often come up with numbers like .499999999... when evaluating A1-INT(A1) instead of .5, causing the test to fail when it should work. The reason I needed to use MOD(ROUND... instead of ISEVEN(INT... is that after closing and opening the file, anywhere Calc needed to evaluate IF(...IF(ISEVEN(INT... it gave a "#MACRO?" error. I don't know why MOD(ROUND... works fine but ISEVEN(INT.... doesn't. Also, MOD(x,2) returns "0" for even and "1" for odd, so it's really replacing ISODD..., and so I had to add .5 instead of subtract .5 when MOD... is "true". And of course, the reason for multiplying by 100 is to use the same idea for pennies instead of dollars. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Missing-function-Bankers-Rounding-tp2530641p2667339.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***
