Make Numbers Negative

The numbers added to this sheet from other workbooks are all positive numbers, but if the form is being created as an increase, then the numbers need to be changed to negative, something like this:

Code:
    If frmPartLoc.cboType.Value = "Increase" Then
    Range("J5:K15").Select
    Selection.NumberFormat = "$#,##0.00_);[Red]($#,##0.00)"
    End If


That doesn't actually change the numbers to negative, though. What will work here?

Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Formula for Yesterday
Name Manager, New Name. Yesterday =TODAY()-1. OK. Then, use =YESTERDAY in any cell. Tomorrow could be =TODAY()+1.
Try like this

Code:
If frmPartLoc.cboType.Value = "Increase" Then
    Range("J5:K15").NumberFormat = "$#,##0.00_);[Red]($#,##0.00)"
    For Each c In Range("J5:K15")
        c.Value = -c.Value
    Next c
End If
