Hi

By using the [h]:mm format, I've added two cell values together. While the
result shown in the third cell is the total number of hours and minutes of
the first two cells which is what I want it to show, I would also like it to
show a negative value if and when necessary but all I see is #####.

Cell 1 = hours normally worked
Cell 2 = hours actually worked
Cell 3 = balance (c3=c2-c1)

How can I get the third cell to show negative as well as positive hours and
minutes?

I am using excel 2007 but needs it to be 2003 compatible

Any suggestions please would be appreciated

Thanks

Dale
