Default Negative number formatting


Hi everyone, does anyone know how to do this? I hve a column of figures,
some positive and some negative. I want to format them so taht the
negative numbers are expressed in (brackets) and also so that the
column itself is decimal aligned, so even if I don't use decimal places
the brackets "stick out". I know Word does this in tables, but I can't
seem to make Excel do it. Help! Thanks, Vicky.
