REMARKS

* This function is only available for backwards compatibility and should not be used.
* CEILING.MATH was added in Excel 2013 to replace this function.
* If any of the arguments are not numeric, then #VALUE! is returned.
* If "significance" < 0, then the absolute value is taken.
* If "significance" = 0, then 0 is returned.
* If "number" is positive and "significance" is negative, then #NUM! is returned.
* If "number" is negative and "significance" is positive then the direction of the rounding is reversed. Examples 17 and 19.
* Positive decimal numbers are rounded up to the nearest integer.
* Negative decimal numbers are rounded up to the nearest integer (away from zero). Example 5.
* You can use the FLOOR.MATH function to round down to the nearest integer or significant figure.
* You can use the INT function to return a number rounded down to the nearest integer.
* You can use the MROUND function to round to a desired multiple of.
* You can use the NOW function to return the serial number of the current system date and time.
* You can use the ROUND function to round to a specified number of digits.
* You can use the ROUNDUP function to round up to a specified number of digits.
* You can use the TRUNC function to returns the number with any decimal places removed.
