is there a way to tell a column that if it sees a number it should be
reflected as a minus? I'm doing deposits in one column and checks in
another, with the total in the third. I've got the formulas in place and it
works great---but I have to put a minus sign in every time----is there a way
to avoid that step? Thanks for any light anyone can shed on this---This
discussion group is the BEST---I've learned TONS here!!!
