plus and minus sign in cells
Hi, I think this is an easy one but beyond me! How can I format the cell to show the result of a sum as a plus or minus (or positive and negative)? It shows minus values by default but I cannot get it to show a plus sign. I have tried the Format Cells/custom part with no joy. example: Cell B8 = 3 Cell C8 = 2 =SUM(B8-C8) gives me a "1" in cell D8, but I want it to show "+1" and Cell B11 = 4 Cell C11 = 5 =SUM(B8-C8) gives me a "-1" in cell D8, which is correct, however I want this to appear in red Grateful for any assistance. Thank you. -- ivoryhunter ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ivoryhunter's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=33327 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=531492 |
