Hi,

I have summed up a particular column and the the total in the cell is appearing to be rounded (2 decimals) but upon looking in the formula bar, there are multiple trailing zeros. All the other columns that have been summed are correct except this one. It also appears in my pivot, as well. Please advise how to remove the trailing zeros and only have it formatted to 2 decimal places?

    It is fairly unpredictable for us mere mortals when the rounding errors will occur. It depends on a lot of factors.

    Do you know what some common factors would be?
