Need to convert a text file to Excel - not the typical comma delineated file
Hi I recently came across a rounding issue with an excel sheet that was causing problems. We were attempting to move money from one bucket to another, so the total sum from various line items should be null or absolute zero, but we were getting very small value in far decimal places. We cleared all values beyond the second decimal point and continued to get a value that was not absolute zero. We then took some of the numbers with two decimal digits and hard input them into a separate excel sheet. The same issue came up in that test where there are values far decimal positions in the formula total where there are none in the hard input numbers of the equation values. See the attached screenshot and formula sample of the test.
