Hi, I'm new here :)

I'm working on a Fringe Benefits sheet and having some problem entering
formula calculations.

In the Word document I was given, there are columns called "In Debt By
-" and "In Credit By +" (see attached image). I want to transfer this
information into Excel.

The problem I have is (and don't know a formula for) if the running
total value is positive, it should only be displayed in the "In Credit
By +" column, and if the running total value is a negative value, it
should only be displayed in the "In Debit By -".

Does anyone have a formula I can use for this calculation? Thank you
very much :)

Amount in A1

B1: =IF(A1<0,A1,"")
C1: =IF(A1=0,A1,"")

Thanks, but I'm not sure how to apply that to my Excel sheet (the
formula you gave me works in a blank one though).

Maybe if I attach the sheet I'm working on (with data copied from Word
in it; not calculated by Excel) you could input the formula in the
correct place (just one row would be good so I understand).

If you can help me, thank you :)

Try this,

in E7: =IF(SUM($E6:$F6)+$C7-$D7<0,SUM($E6:$F6)+$C7-$D7,"")
in F7: =IF(SUM($E6:$F6)+$C7-$D7=0,SUM($E6:$F6)+$C7-$D7,"")

and copy down
