Right. Excel seems to have no limit on the number of places you can
round to. I tried 600 and it worked (I think). It seems that Excel won't
calculate beyond fourteen decimals. I entered 20/3 and got
6.6666666666666700000000 when the cell was formatted to display 22
decimal places. Rounding to more that 20 places seems to me to be not
rounding. If you really need the accuracy, could you not multiply by
10e22 before rounding? Sorry if this is simplistic, but without knowing
what you're trying to do, it's hard to envision a need for that kind of
accuracy.

Hi Ferencz,
I pasted your formula in a spreadsheet, added some values in the
referenced cells and it works fine. I get Err:502 if I2 is greater
than 20.

Calc uses semicolons, not commas to separate parameters. I do not
understand what the formula does for you, but I do know that the
ROUND format should be ROUND( NUMBER ; DECIMAL PLACES )
SUM format should be SUM(BEGINNING CELL:ENDING CELL) which does not
seem to be what you want. You seem to want to multiply cell H5 with
I3 then add H5 to that product. If so, that would simply be
(H5*$I$3 +H5).
