I have a range of fields that needs to be changed from a posivtive number to
a negetive number, how do I changed a range of fields at a time?

Mr G

You can use another cell, so if you have 100 in A1 and in A2 enter

=-A1

It will show -100. You can then copy this down as far as the data goes and
then copy it and EditPaste special...Values over the existing data to
replace it

Put -1 in a cell. Copy the cell, select all your data to be changed and do
Edit / Paste Special / Values & Multiply. Delete the -1.
