Sierra, you've moved all the goal posts!

But, I think/hope, what you are asking here is how to add .01 when there are
2 decimal places, .001 when there are 3 decimal places, etc., is that
correct?

If so, then you need something like:

B9+1*10^-(LEN(B9)-FIND(".",B9))

instead of B9+0.1

Steve:
You are correct in assuming that I need to account for numbers that have one
decimal place and two decimal places, but does your formula still do the
basis of what I need, in that if the "if" statement is true it will roundup
to the next whole number? Please let me know. THanks.

Sierra,

what I gave you was only a part of the overall formula, your finished
formula would be:

=IF(COUNTIF(B9:G9,"*"),ROUNDUP(B9,0),
B9+1*10^-(LEN(B9)-FIND(".",B9)))

From: Rick Rothstein on
Here is what Steve posted placed inside the IF function call that you
originally asked for....

=IF(COUNTIF(C9:G9,"*"),ROUNDUP(B9,0),B9+10^-(LEN(B9)-FIND(".",B9)))

However, there is one possible problem with this formula... it will error
out if the value in B9 is a whole number with no decimal part (and if there
is something in C9:G9). I would have patched it for Steve, but you never
told us what should happen when B9 contains a whole number... should it have
1 added to it (that is, if B9 contained, say, 5, should it become 6)?

By the way, notice that I made the range for the COUNTIF function C9:G9, and
NOT the range B9:G9 that you said you were using in your formula. If you
include B9, then the COUNTIF will always return at least a value of 1 which
means the true part of the IF statement will always execute.
