I have a column of numbers that I copy from an Internet Banking app. The
numbers are in General format when I paste them into Excel. Each "number" is
in the format "#,###.##-" for withdrawls and "#,###.## " for deposits.

What I want to be able to do is find simple way to convert them to positvie
and negative NUMBERS

Take a look he-
