432443 2006-02-20 23:26:00 To fix Mikes problem, try the format string from:
_-* #,##0.00_-;-* #,##0.00_-;_-* " "??_-;_-@_-
to
_-* #,##0.00_-;- #,##0.00_-;_-* " "??_-;_-@_-

Seems to work (removal of the "*" affects the alignment of the minus), not sure if you need them all removed but the second one in seems to be the one you need Mike.

I guess the difference is that that is a universal option, which may not be what you actually want, whereas what has been discussed is at the individual cell level. Tony (4941)
