I have a cell that contains the answer of a multiplication rounded up to the next integer. When I multiply this rounded cell times another cell, it multiplies using the unrounded number including the figures to the right of the decimal rather than just the integer. How can I fix this?
Thanks,

jnix,

I suspect you might have your formula structured so the the roundup applies to the entire formula, instead of just to the initial portion.

Here's an example of how the formula should be...

=ROUNDUP(E3*F3,0)*D5

...where the multiplication of D5 is outside the ROUNDUP.

I've tested this and it works for me, so I hope it works for you.

Please advise as to how you make out.

That seemed to work.
