The top answer is actually wrong   The suggested equation  a -  b    a   b    Will solve to  a - a  Which is of course 0 in all cases   The correct equation is   a -  b   INT a   b    Or  if the number  a  can be negative  use this   a -  b   FIX a   b

Be very careful with the Excel MOD a b  function and the VBA a Mod b operator  Excel returns a floating point result and VBA an integer   In Excel  Mod 90 123 90  returns 0 123000000000005 instead of 0 123 In VBA 90 123 Mod 90 returns 0  They are certainly not equivalent   Equivalent are  In Excel   Round Mod 90 123 90  3  returning 0 123 and In VBA    90 123   1000  Mod 90000  1000 returning also 0 123

User · Answer

You want the mod operator   The expression a Mod b is equivalent to the following formula   a -  b    a   b     Edited to add   There are some special cases you may have to consider  because Excel is using floating point math  and returns a float   which the VBA function returns an integer  Because of this  using mod with floating-point numbers may require extra attention    Excel s results may not correspond exactly with what you would predict  this is covered briefly here  see topmost answer  and at great length here  As  Andr   points out in the comments  negative numbers may round in the opposite direction from what you expect  The Fix   function he suggests is explained here  MSDN

My way to replicate Excel s MOD a b  in VBA is to use XLMod a b  in VBA where you include the function   Function XLMod a  b        This replicates the Excel MOD function     XLMod   a - b   Int a   b  End Function   in your VBA Module
