in excel, how to limit digits of negative hexadecimal numbers?
Remember that the hex "digits" are just a string representing the number:
In A1 put -700
in B1 put =DEC2HEX(A1) and you will see FFFFFFFD44
if you want the upper half then use =RIGHT(HEX2DECMAL(A1),4)
if you want the lower half then use =LEFT(HEX2DECMAL(A1),4)

how does one limit the number of digits displayed in a negative hexadecimal

e.g., instead of the default 10 digits, somethimes i'd like to have only 3
digits, other times 4.
