Negative result gives #### is there a way to show the actual - num
Terry
That doesn't happen because you have a negative number. It's because the column is not wide enough to hold that number. Increase the width of that column. HTH Otto "catts22" wrote in message ... Hi The result of a formula gives me ##### for a negative number. Is there a way to get the actual negative number (i.e. for example -9 instead of ###)? Alternatively maybe show a 0 (zero)? Sending a report to my boss with #### doesn't look so great. Maybe a minimum number formula? Thanks |

Actually, if the cell is formatted to date or time, a negative value will
display hash marks. If changing column width doesn't work, try changing the cell format to General or number. -- Best Regards, Luke M "Otto Moehrbach" wrote in message ...
