Default Convert neg. numbers to positive numbers

If they are all negative, then put -1 in a spare cell and copy that cell.

Then select the numbers and EditPasteSpecialMultiply

OK out and clear out the -1.

I want to convert neg. numbers to positive numbers. To be clear, I don't
want them just to DISPLAY as positive but to BECOME positive. As well, I
don't want to have to had another column (the ABS() function). Thanks to
any
who can help.
