Below is some code I extracted from a Youtube tutorial using Excel 2010. When I try to run this on Excel 2011 for the Mac, the currency outputs are all integers. Does FormatCurrency() work differently in this version of Excel? Or have I just screwed up something (again)? Thanks for any help.

' Ice cream store order and print receipt

Private Sub btnOrder_Click()
Dim numScoops As Integer
Dim scoopCost As Double
Dim tipAmount As Double
Dim totalCost As Double
'*** get the number of scoops ordered
numScoops = CInt(txtScoops.Text)
'*** calculate cost of ice cream and tip amount
scoopCost = numScoops * SCOOPPRICE
tipAmount = scoopCost * TIPPERCENT
'*** add the two to get the total cost
totalCost = scoopCost + tipAmount
'*** print receipt
lstReceipt.AddItem ("Thanks for your order!")
lstReceipt.AddItem ("")
lstReceipt.AddItem ("You ordered " & CStr(numScoops) & " scoops of ice cream")
lstReceipt.AddItem ("Cost of ice cream " & FormatCurrency(scoopCost, 2))
lstReceipt.AddItem ("Tip (thank you) " & FormatCurrency(tipAmount, 2))
lstReceipt.AddItem ("Total cost " & FormatCurrency(totalCost, 2))
End Sub
Code works fine in Excel 2010 on Windows 7 pc. Try using the immediate window in the VBE and pepper some debug.print statements in to see what's going on.
Debug.print FormatCurrency(scoopCost,2) for example...
Just thought you should know that it does work.
