Dealing with minus numbers in formulas
I'm adding the values from 3 cells using the formula =SUM(C61,C63,C64) . The value in cell C63 is calculated by a formula =SUM(C62*0.4) which can sometimes produce a minus figure. When the figure in C63 is a minus number, I want it to show a 0, so that the minus number is not factored in to the sum of cells C61,C63,C64. Hope that makes sense! Any suggestions gratefully received! -- duubgina ------------------------------------------------------------------------ duubgina's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=34867 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=546187 |

Replace =SUM(C61,C63,C64) with =SUM(C61,C63*(C630),C64) -- CaptainQuattro ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CaptainQuattro's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=32763 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=546187 |

Dealing with minus numbers in formulas
duubgina: Maybe this: =C61+C64+MAX(C63,0) Does that help?

Dealing with minus numbers in formulas
In C63 use one of
(a) =IF(C62<0,0,C62*0.4) or (b) =(C62*0.4)*(C620) For the summation use =C61+C63+C64 No need to clutter cells with SUM every time you code a simple formula best wishes -- Bernard Liengme www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove CAPS in email address "duubgina" wrote in message ...
