I'm trying to add up the negative values in a column with positive values as
well. Lotus has a sumnegative function that would just add those cells that
contained a negative value. Does Excel have a similar function?

you can try this

=SUMIF(A1:A30,"<0",A1:A30)

Use sumif function like:

=SUMIF(A1:A999,"<0")

Hi,

Though sumif is definitely the best function to use, you may also use an
array formula (Ctrl+Shift+Enter)

=sum(if((range<0,range)) confirmed by Ctrl+Shift+Enter
