Not sure about automatic but one manual way.

Put -1 in a cell, select that cell and copy it.

Select all your cells with negative values then

Edit|paste special|multiply and click OK
delete the cell with -1 in

I am downloading banking inofrmation to a spreadsheet. It downloads as

negitive value. Is there a way to automaticly change this?-


Mike,
Thanks for this simple trick. I was doing this the long way - Inseret

some time it shows more digits than I care for.
