Hello!

The situation is as follows:

Sheet #1 contains the following:

Tax Paid $120
Tax Collected $100
-----------------------------------------------------------
Net Payable / (Receivable) ($20)
[Tax Paid is deducted from Tax Collected]

Sheet #2 contains the following headings, which is a journal voucher:

Account No Description Debit Credit

I need to come up with an if statement to place the net value from sheet
#1 under the correct column of debit or credit:

1) If the value is negative then the tax is receivable should be place
under 'Debit', say cell number D2 as a positive number
2) If the value is positive then the tax is payable and should be placed
under 'Credit', say cell number E2, as a positive number
3) If the value is equal to zero then both cells, D2 & E2, should be
zero.

Thanks
SJ
