Hi,
I've used a Vlookup and result is 35.10- (the minus sign is at the end of the number).
Now, I really need that number in brackets. If I change the result cell format to anything from date to currency etc, it has no effect. TEXT function is of no use either. Is it a bug or something?
I'm not looking to change the format of the original cell that I'm looking up - that needs to stay general format.
Thank you!
EDIT: I JUST FIGURED OUT THAT THE PROBLEM IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT MINUS SIGN IS AT THE END OF THE NUMBER, NOT BEGINNING. WHAT DO WE DO NOW? I STILL NEED IT IN BRACKETS, THANK YOU.
