Brackets or paranthesis around negative numbers in Excel

[Lorne]

Does Excel have a format for this?

 

[Dav]

No,

But it is very easy to create, go to the custom category under numbe
tab when u format cells. Create your own format

#,##0;(#,##0) if you just want brackets

#,##0;-(#,##0) if you want a minus outside the brackets

#,##0;(-#,##0) if you want a minus inside the brackets

Thanks Dav. I'm new and you and Bernard have opened a new door in Excel for
me.
