=IF(C1="","",-C1)
The above will work if by "no value" you mean an empty text string, but if you have other text you may have problems. You could use =IF(ISNUMBER(C1),-C1,"") or =IF(C1="","",IF(ISNUMBER(C1),-C1,"invalid input")) -- David Biddulph "gma" wrote in message ... hey stefi thanks...that worked, now how do i get rid of the "#value!" thats shows in cell D1 if cell C1 has no value?

The following formula will display 0 if C1 is blank:
=-N(C1) If you want to leave the cell blank then you should use the more complex: =IF(C1<"",-C1,"") HTH Kostis Vezerides On Oct 21, 6:46*pm, gma wrote: hey stefi thanks...that worked, now how do i get rid of the "#value!" thats shows in cell D1 if cell C1 has no value?

I know this is a really bad work around, but how about :
(In D1) = (C1-C1-C1) Kev "gma" wrote: Problem: Say I have a number in cell C1 and I want that number in cell D1 but with a - sign in front of it exp: 20% in cell C1 in D1 I want -20%. CAn anyone help me with this? |
