In my use of formulas when calculating numbers from a live data feed. Negative numbers are important, however I am looking for a method to remove the polarity of a number and have it represented as a whole positive number regardless if it was previously negative? Can some one help?

Thanks
 

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
you would need to use ABS function
Code:
[B]=ABS(A1)[/B]

Excel 2016 (Windows) 32 bit
AB
165466546
2-456456
3-3216532165
