Hi
I want the value that i type into a cell always to be
negative

Hi,

You need to adjust the format of the cell - this one for instance: -*
#,##0_-;-* #,##0_-;_-* "-"_-;_-@_-

Notice that the format starts with "-".

Go to Format-Cells-Number and paste this format in the custom part.

Cheers,
Jon

Is there a specific Cell or range of cells on your worksheet that you want
this?
Or any and all cells on any Worksheet?

In either case:

Dim c As Range, aoi As Range
