Hello Guys,
Am kinda new to the forum and would appreciate any help in sorting out my fix. I want to have this simple formula: (A1 + B1)-C1 (+/-)D1 = E1 work in excel. Assuming value in D can either be a positive or negative figure. My challenge is in creating a formula that can accept either positive or negative numbers for the cell D1.

Your help is much appreciated.....

Thanks

Using a mouse in Excel is the work equivalent of wearing a lanyard when you first get to college
What do you want to do if D1 is positive & what if it's negative?
