hi,
-my question is basically for example if u type a value of 50 to lets say
cell A1.
-then u make a simple equation in cell A3 which says the value in cell A3
results from A1 minus A2. ((A3=A1-A2))
-ok now say u type a value of 100 in cell A2.
-this will give a negative result in cell A3 which in this case will be -50.
-My question is is there anything in excel that can change the display of
that -50 in cell A3? Is there a formula or something that either displays a 0
figure i.e. does not display a figure with a negative result?
-The reason I ask this question is because I am working on worksheets that
calculate individuals' promises to a charity and their payments throughout
the year.
For example a person promises $500.00 and pays a total of $550.00 throughout
the course of the year. So I have created as 'Arrears' cell which would
display -$50.00 as this person has overpaid his promises.
I need something in the arrears cell that doesnt display a negative result
or displays a zero if promises are paid excatly or over the amount. Please
help.
Aplogies for the complicated question.
