Once more I've encountered a problem apparently caused by programmers not
paying attention to the users. I have a spreadsheet that MUST show the signs (+/-) of a number. For one series, the unit MUST also show. So, positive numbers MUST be shown as +##.### and negatives as -##.###. When units are shown, the format MUST be +##.### lbs. and -##.### lbs. What's especially aggravating is when I enter -##.### lbs., Excel assumes it's a formula, not text. (This coding is only slightly less aggravating than Excel assuming entering 234 + 456 is text, not a formual. At least Quattro Pro got that right.) Any suggestions? -- I know enuff to be dangerous. |
