G25 through G38 are payments received by clients. I need
to be able to leave that payment as it was originaly
entered as a record. If My accountant sees that that
payment, days later, bounces, I want him to be able to
enter "bounced" in Col. D for the appropriate row.
So "bounced" would be entered in D25 if G25 ($500)
bounced, which I then need to be reflected in the total
showing in G39. This IF "BOUNCED" needs to repeat itself
for each row 25-38 to give me a real total on G39 for all
payements in. Also, formulas in other cells reference the
number in G39...

Given the formula in G39 it will automatically pick up

any negative anyway,
so what you need to do is cater for whatever is in cells

G25:G38 and have
them change if their opposites in Col D have that text.

So what do you have
in G25:G38?

What if there is already a formula in that cell that

needs
to be changed. In this case G39 is "=SUM(G25:G38" and I
need D25 though D28 to have the option for the "bounced
text.
For Example: If D25 is "bounced", then the value in G25
should become a negative number which will make the
adjustment on the total for G39

=IF(A1="bounced",-500,500)

or if the 500 is from another cell

=IF(A1="bounced",-H5,H5)

The formula has to be in the cell that is to change.

If I enter the word "bounced" in one cell can I

trigger
a
value in another cell ($500.00) to become a negative
number (-$500.00)?
