Negative number returned as zero
 

I have a formula, such as the one below that will return a negative
number until another worksheet is updated.I'd like for this to return a
zero until it becomes a positive number.Can someone help?

='H:\Morning Reports 2005\Nov\[11-14-05.xls]Production'!$N$52

Do you mean

=IF('H:\Morning Reports
2005\Nov\[11-14-05.xls]Production'!$N$520,'H:\Morning Reports
2005\Nov\[11-14-05.xls]Production'!$N$52,0)

I read it as the current formula will return less than 0 until an update, so
until then return a 0.

=if('H:\Morning Reports
2005\Nov\[11-14-05.xls]Production'!$N$52)<0,0.'H:\Morning Reports
2005\Nov\[11-14-05.xls]Production'!$N$52
