Hi All,
Need to be able to round a number >1, to the nearest half, rounding up.
0.87 = 1.
1.17=1.5
1.57=2, etc...
My current formula is just doing it to the nearest half (not necessarily the higher half).
I'm sure theres a ceiling in there somewhere, but not sure.

=IF(A2>1, ROUND(AI2-1)*2, 0)/2, 0))

Thanks in advance!!

Tiny charts, called Sparklines, were added to Excel 2010. Look for Sparklines on the Insert tab.
Need to be able to round a number >1, to the nearest half, rounding up.
0.87 = 1. 1.17=2, 1.57=2, etc...
If you are rounding up to the nearest half, why would 1.17 go up to 2 instead of 1.5?
