Could some one help me with a formula?
If Column [AMOUNT] starts with a negative "-" then show the negative sign "-" else show "0" (Zero). I would like to place this in a new column.
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
If you are truly talking about Access, then I think you mean you want to put this in a new Field in a Query.

If it is a numeric entry, then you should be able to use this:
Expr1: IIF([AMOUNT]<0,[AMOUNT],0)
