Round function

Returns a number rounded to a specified number of decimal places.

Syntax

Round( expression [, numdecimalplaces ] )

The Round function syntax has these arguments:

Argument	Description
expression	Required. Numeric expression being rounded.
numdecimalplaces	Optional. Number indicating how many places to the right of the decimal are included in the rounding. If omitted, the function rounds to the nearest whole number.

Note: This VBA function returns something commonly referred to as bankers rounding. So be careful before using this function. For more predictable results, use Worksheet Round functions in Excel VBA.
