I am looking for a formula that can manipulate a column of numbers to add up to 100.0% even though the actual sum is 99.9%

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Copy PDF to Excel
Select data in PDF. Paste to Microsoft Word. Copy from Word and paste to Excel.
Here is one way, that "adjusts" the last value, to ensure it hits exactly 100%.

Let's say that you have values in A1:A10, and you want the percentage of the total to be in column B.
So in cell B1, enter this formula, and copy down to cell B9:
Code:
=ROUND(A1/SUM($A$1:$A$10),3)

Then in cell B10, enter:
Code:
=1-SUM(B1:B9)
