Default formatting numbers: 14'342 -> 14'000 ?

Hi everyone,

when working with formulas, like { = 7123 * 2 }, I'd like to format the result in a way that it is not 14'246 but 14'000. In other words: rounded to the next thousand.
Is this possible with anything similar to \# "#'##0 ?

Thank you for your support.

BR Ghaffy

Depending on what you're trying to achieve:
{=INT(7123*2/100)*100}
{=ROUND(7123*2,-3)
plus your switch.

To see how to do this and a wide range of other calculations in Word, check out my Microsoft Word Field Maths Tutorial, in the 'Sticky' thread at the top of this forum:

Thank you, Paul. This helped.

I missed somehow that the ROUND function is also available in Word.

And best regards from Austria to Australia!
