Hi
You can do that with formatting or you could use something like: =IF(yourformula<0,0,yourformula) -- Andy. "Penfold" wrote in message ... I need to create a formula that says if the value is a minus or 0 show 0.00 if there is a positive value show the value. |

Bob
I was working on the theory that the cell would be formatted as 0.00, and therefore the formula wouldn't need to check for being zero itself! -- Andy.

Suggest that it would be better to consider (to cover result = 0)
=if(resultofyour formula0,resultofyourformula,0) and before copying format to 2 decimal places. If it was my spreadsheet consider using conditional format so that If value < 0 then fontcolour = white If value = 0 then fontvolour = white This means that only results with positive values have any figures showing -- Don C "Andy B" wrote: Hi You can do that with formatting or you could use something like: =IF(yourformula<0,0,yourformula) -- Andy.

And, just to toss in one more way:
=MAX(0,your formula) "Penfold" wrote: I need to create a formula that says if the value is a minus or 0 show 0.00 if there is a positive value show the value. |

One caveat with using CF and font colour of white is that the value still
exists in the cell and would be summed along with the others. -- Andy. "DonCam65" wrote in message ...

Hi Andy,
I feared he wanted different format for 0 and non-zero :-) Regards Bob <Andy B wrote in message ... Bob I was working on the theory that the cell would be formatted as 0.00, and therefore the formula wouldn't need to check for being zero itself! -- Andy. |

one question is whether just the display needs to be 0.00 or does a cell
referencing the cell need to read 0.00 or the actual value? Formating the cell does not change the value other cells would read as this cells value. the If or max equaitions would be a real zero value "Penfold" wrote: I need to create a formula that says if the value is a minus or 0 show 0.00 if there is a positive value show the value. |

With A1 representing the cell location, the formula is =IF(A10,A1,0)
