Change series of numbers from positive to negative
 
I have a series of postive numbers. All I want to do is change them to
negative. They are all independent from each other and different.
Thanks!

Change series of numbers from positive to negative
 
In an unused cell enter -1 and copy it.
Select the cells you want to change and
paste/special with the multiply button checked

In blank cell enter -1, select it, copy, select range of cells with
positive numbers, go to Edit - Paste special - in Paste Special
dialog select Values and Multiply.
