Greetings all,

I need to be able to make a series of labels in a user form to display a -ve
currency value in Red

For non -ve value I have no problem
Results.Controls("AProfit" & i) = Format(a - c, "$#,##0")

but I can't make it It trurn red with a -ve value

Results.Controls("AProfit" & i) = Format(a - c, "$#,##0;-[Red]$#,##0")

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Use the forecolor property of the label.
