Decimal to integer conversion
Converting from decimal to integer does not require Format or Locale parameters and works by throwing away fractional part of a decimal number. Note that decimal can store larger numbers than integer and the conversion can therefore result in an error.
Remarks
-
Converting an Error value will result in an Error.
-
Converting a No value cell will result in a No value.
