Change positive to negative number
Hi,
[Excel 2007] I have a huge list of prices and alot are- negative but are't supposed to be, how can I do it to alot at once? Apply Filter just to show numbers smaller than 0. Then copy a "-1" to clipboard. Select the filtered result, and choose "Paste special | Mulitply". (See http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/mic...ing-in-excel/#, http://www.mrexcel.com/articles/past...-operation.php) Alternative: In an additional column use following formula: =IF(A2<0;A2*-1;A2) Then copy this column and paste just values into the other column. -- Cheers, Lisa |
