ignore value when a negative.
I have a formula that is applied to a series of cells in some of the cells it
generates a negative value. How do I incorporate into the formula something that would say if the result value is < o then show it as 0 and not as a negative number. Hope this is clear thanks in anticipation. Eqa |

It depends on what your actual formula *is*.
Try one of these: =MAX(your_formula,0) =IF(your_formula<0,0,your_formula) Biff "Eqa" wrote in message ...
