hi all, new to the forums as i need help!
running excel 2000 under advanced server 2000 (intel p4 2ghz hp compa
evo pc) and having a problem with the text import wizard ;
trying to import a fixed column text report with three number column
that include negative values in the format 320.06-
problem is that they have to be imported as general type as there is n
number option in the import wizard which then means that excel appear
to treat the negative sign as text pushing the cell justification ove
to the left and if i try to create a cell which displays the sum o
these three negative values, the result is always zero.
tried formatting the columns in all the different number, custom
general formats etc but nothing works.
do i need to create a new custom format?
any suggestions please?
thanks in advance :
