transactions amounts offset eachother

[Radhakant Panigrahi]

Hi,
can anybody help in the below query
i have the below data with me
RECEIPT_NUMBER TRX_NUMBER Amount Comments
9907893007 7000604737 151.06 Nil
9907893007 7000604737 175.51 Bill
9907893007 7000604737 -151.51 Nil
9907893007 7000604737 -151.51 Nil
9907893007 7000604737 -151.06 Nil
9910789407 7000857919 4,239.33 Nil
9910789407 7000857919 4,239.33 Bill
9910789407 7000857919 -4,239.33 Nil
9910699310 7100467576 -88.37 Nil
9910699310 7100467576 88.37 Bill
9910699310 7100467576 88.37 Nil

in the above details the some transactions are coming repetitively and
having +ve and -ve with same amounts cancelling each other and i need
manually segregate them and put comments manually in column "D"...for
example number 7000604737 comes 5 times and i 4 lines of this number are
offset each other by amountand their sum to "ZERO"

In another column, use a formula like

=ABS(C2) and copy down.

Then sort by your receipt number, trx number, and that number to get pairs
at least close together.
