Default Can I calculate negative numbers to = zero in excel?

When I do an autosum some of the numbers are equally negative numbers. But I
want them to just SHOW zero instead. Is this possible?

You can use the round function:

=round(your number,0)

In a new column run something like
=IF(a1<0,0,a1)
Once the first cell is done, highlight it and hold down the shift key and
tap down arrow or page down keys then hit control d (copys down).

Or you could use this formula:

=IF(AND(A1<1,A1-1),ABS(A1),A1)
