Yes
The functions you want are CEILING to round up and FLOOR to round down.

You're welcome.

doesn't that mean using a second column and formula? or can it be added to a basic sum function?

you'll need a second column.
Unless you can layer formulae in excel. Never tried that. Because I have a life.

You know, if you typed this question into the help bit of Excel instead of into b3ta, you should easily find the answer.
Or do you find that Excel doesn't take the piss out of you enough?
