Default Reverse if negative in 2007

In a previous version of excel, our users could create a chart from some
negative/positive data and format it using the above option so neg was red,
pos was blue! Doesn't appear to be the same ability in 2007?
Anyone?

Default Reverse if negative in 2007

Hi,

This was discussed in an early thread, with the title 'plot 0 as green and
< 0 as red'

You can, with VBA code or my add-in, get the Invert If Negative to work but
you have to retain a fill pattern.
As soon as you set the fill to Solid the second color is lost.

The other approach is to use 2 data series based on original data. 1 for
positive 1 for negative values.

Cheers
Andy
