Hi Tracey

the easiest option is to select your cell and choose format cells - on the
numbers tab, choose the number category and then select how you want
negative numbers to appear ... if you don't like red, choose custom and type
something like
#,##0;[Blue]-#,##0

substituting blue for whatever colour you want ... (limited range - green /
yellow / magenta seem to work)

Cheers
