Thanks


Hi Doc,

Format cell A2 (or any others used in your weight answer) as number with two decimal places.

Then type into cell A2
=MROUND(A1/11.5,0.25)

I have only run it on a few examples...it should work fine.

If you get an answer which is #VALUE!, then make sure you have all the addins installed for Excel.
