Okay, thanks...For some reason, I'm not getting it. I think I'll leave it
open for a manual entry. Thanks so much!!

Thanks to all for responding so quickly! I know this has got to be simple
as
dirt, but I have hit a blank and I'm just not getting it. This
spreadsheet
is actually an expense report. Cell I40 would be the amount of a net
check.
I41 would contain any amounts noted for miscellaneous deductions. I42
would
be the amount of an adjusted check, but ONLY if there was a figure in I42
to
be deducted from I41 which equaled an amount greater than zero.
Otherwise,
I42 would remain blank.

Hope this isn't a duplicate, but my previous post never appeared: I
have a
running spreadsheet. I only want a figure to show in I42 if I40-I41
is
greater than zero. What is the correct formula?
