Can anyone show me a formula to take any value in a cell and round it up to the nearest user defined 10, 20, 50, etc.?
 
To round to the nearest 10, you can use this
=round(b4,-1
"b4" is the cell reference. You would choose would cell the number you want to round is in

tj
 
=CEILING(A1,X)

where X = the rounding criterion. For instance, to round
up to the nearest 10:

=CEILING(A1,10)

Hi Fred
if the Analysis Toolpak is installed try
=MROUND(A1,multiple)

without the Analysis Toolpak installed try
=ROUND(A1/multiple,0)*multiple

I think you mean

=ROUNDUP(B4,-1)

Hi Fred!

Try:
=CEILING(A1,B1)

Rounds a number (away from zero) to the nearest multiple of
significance.

No, I meant =round...but only because I misread the question. Sorry about that

Hi
Forget my post, I gave you a solution for rounding and not for a
roundUP

Dear All,

Thank you for your input. Collectively, you have solved my problem.
