calculate minus figures
 

Can anyone help me to calculate the minus figures only in a range of random
costs?
example

£-2000.00
£ 1000.00
£ 560.00
£-4500.00

£-6500.00

these figures are random as per data entry to hours and cost etc. the
figures are to show a loss in costs that could have been saved.
i am using excell in office 2000.

any help graciously appreciated.

Thanks,

Nigel

Instead of something like sum(A1:10), use sumif(A1:A10,"<0") and should just
sum those numbers less than zero.
