Getting a positive percentage to have a + sign
 
I often show the difference between relative percentages and would like to
have a positive number show up as +9%. Currently I only have -9% and 9%.
Any help would be appreciated.

You can use a custom format variation of:

+0.00%;-0.00%;0%;@

(positive;negative;zero;text)

Is this under the "custom" section of cell formatting?
