Add "+" plus symbol to positive percentage
Well - if you WANT a positive result
you can eliminate the "-1" from your formula, or you can use an IF() =A1/A2-IF(A2A1,1,0), or you can use ABS(A1/A2-1) Or, you can use a custom format 0.00%;"+"0.00% that will put a plus sign in front of negative percentages. If you want it in front of both... "+"0.00%;"+"0.00% "Hendrik.Kleine" wrote: Hi, Im calculating a precentage of two figures: A1= 100 A2=200 =(A1/A2)-1 This gives me a negative result "-50%" When A1 is greater than A2, resulting in a positve result, I'd like it to display "+50%". Right now the plus symbol is not included. Tried to concatenate but can't figure it out. Many thanks for all suggestions. Hendrik |
