    Round off values after decimal to nearst 0.5
    I would like the numbers rounded to the nearest 0.5.


    For example:

    1.43 ---> 1.50
    0.26 ---> 0.50
    0.14 ---> 0.00

    Data is :
    0.24%
    0.36%
    -2.97%
    0.18%
    -2.56%
    -2.15%
    0.06%
    -3.64%
    -0.07%
    1.22%
    -5.53%
    4.23%
    -1.49%
    -0.27%
    0.98%
    1.12%
    4.24%
    -3.62%
    -2.65%
    -0.16%
    1.37%
    -0.23%
    1.42%
    3.57%
    -0.33%
    -4.85%
    0.61%
    0.52%
    -2.02%
    -4.65%
    -0.86%
    -0.01%
    -1.41%
    -3.54%

    Look at the ROUND function in Excel.

    Code:

    =ROUND(A1*2,0)/2

    This formula is not working as it returns answer 0.

    Were you careful to use Curlyben's syntax exactly as he posted it?

    Alternatively, use the MROUND function:

    =mround(cell_reference, 0.5)

    why ask for help if you want to complain, weird criteria anyway. You want excel to do the work for you set the value of each cell to a number of places or define a custom value otherwise excel has excellent help regarding its functions
