Hi,

I have a number in Cell G1. This number will be either negative or positive. Im trying to write a formual in cell I1 that will display a 1 if G1 is negative and a 0 if G1 is positive. Thanks for the help!

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
how about:

=IF(G1<0, 1, 0)

although are you counting 0 as positive or negative?
